City of Columbia to hold public meetings on trash bag ordinance

The City of Columbia is asking for public input on proposed changes to their trash ordinance.

According to a press release, the city’s solid waste utility has recommended to the city council that they do away with requiring residents to use trash bags with city logos for their trash.

The city will hold two public meetings on the issue: one is this Thursday at 6 p.m. and the other is Wednesday, November 30 at 6 p.m. Both meetings will be at City Hall.
