WILDWOOD – Wildwood Commissioners would consider a ban on plastic bags and other single-use items, said Mayor Peter Byron.
At the Feb. 12 Wildwood Board of Commissioners meeting, Al Brannen held a clipped article from the Herald about Cape May adopting a ban on single-use plastics. Brannen asked if Wildwood would consider the same.
“It’s a righteous call,” Byron responded.
“Wildwood is a unique animal, in that there is a diversity of businesses in our city,” he stated, in an email, to the Herald. “An effective and successful program to ban one-use items needs to be carefully coordinated among all the players involved, to give those most affected by a possible ban a voice in how to move forward in a way that is environmentally responsible, while not imposing an undue economic burden on valued businesses.”
There was no word on a timeline for the potential ordinance.
Cape May – Governor Murphy says he doesn't know anything about the drones and doesn't know what they are doing but he does know that they are not dangerous. Does anyone feel better now?
