Controversy at the checkout for our merchants. What do you mean its a dollar . What do you mean its 25 cents . Its always been 10 cents. I dont care what it is because i am not affected by it, but how come you are changing it . We dont need that conversation 10,000 times times three, five, 20 sektdz seconds to have that conversation to make a productivity hit on the merchants and the ability to get people in and out of the stores. If you have ever waited in line at the market, 10, 20 deep, the last thing i want to hear is people arguing about, what they are getting charged for their bag and making that line take 50 to 100 percent longer. So i really object when people come in here and make quantitative try to put forward quantitative arguments with nothing but qualitative information with no data. The data exists. You have it in other countries. If you are really wanted to be thorough, you would bring the data with you. Okay . And so we are here to help you do better legislation. And g
And so if everyone else is already got religion, then all youre doing is causing a controversy at the checkout for our merchants. What do you mean its a dollar . What do you mean its 25 cents .

Take a look at this pool behind me. Its full of dirty, brown water. Now, the water has actually gone down since this morning, but, still, no one is going to be swimming in that any time soon. Weave seen several members of the swim team here taking a look at the place where they normally practice. S a discouraging sight to say the least and weve been seeing floodingan situations damage like this throughout montgomery county. I think thats just water rushing through. Rter whatever plans these neighbors have for the day. Well, those plans will have to t nt even walk on the sidewalk. Off of mcarthur boulevard, belfast road, not a road anymore. All the rain washed it away and unfortunately its the only road into this neighborhooo i feely for thee guy on the other side. Reporter cindy has lived around here for 20 years and says shes never seen anything like this. Imhe worried about poor people that live in this neighborhood.

Are grateful of the process to go through to be added to the registry in addition to the financial benefits. I have advocated that the commission should have the authority to nominate worthy businesses to circumvent some of the delays we see when we encounter the Supervisors Offices who are disinterested in the program and simply dont have time. I get that we have competing agendas but to make multiple requests to an office and be ignored is something that i just find real estatingly aggravating and something really aggravating and something that i wish we could be empowered. We cant just do it ourselves and it requires the supervisors and potentially the voters to change what was a voter initiative. The legacy business registry was approved by the voters. The supervisors have an obligation to the citizens to support the program as best they can. All businesses that are nominated by a with the outstanding job of insuring that the businesses meet that experience. And very disappointed a

With respect to the equity issue that you raised, it is foremost on supervisor browns mind and really sort of one of the primary concerns along with Small Businesses and the impact on them that this legislation would have. And were one, if you are shopping with snap benefits, you are already excluded from this charge. So our lowest income folks who are shopping on food stamps and the like, they are not going to see a bag charge ever. And the other, we ransom quick numbers back of napkin for how many times we expect and i think the department can speak to this we are talking like 40 a year even for the if you are yeah. Even the precheckout bags and that i support and i have supported that. But just that 25 cents is just i im sorry, just be im sorry. But i will let the department of environment speak. Th
