As part of the city’s Neighborhood and Environmental Protection Plan, Laguna Beach has adopted an ordinance that addresses plastic pollution.
The ordinance, which took effect on Thursday, bans single-use plastic food ware items in the city’s beaches, parks and trails.
The sale, use or distribution of single-use, to-go plastics such as straws, drink stirrers, eating utensils and take-out bags made from such material is also prohibited.
The city urges local food and beverage vendors to use reusable materials when possible. Restaurants are asked not to provide non-plastic alternatives like paper straws unless a customer requests them.
A food vendor may receive a one-year exemption from the ban on plastic food service ware if it can show that the conditions of the ordinance would cause undue hardship.

Station 3 at the COVID-19 testing super site at the Orange County fairgrounds is where Angela Huynh works.
The Golden West College nursing student is a bit later in the game than many of her peers. At 28, she already has a bachelor’s degree in biology from UCLA, but she went back to school for the opportunity to become a nurse.
“I decided that maybe I want to be a little bit more interactive, spend more face time with patients,” said Huynh, who lives in Fountain Valley. “I love nursing. I can’t imagine doing anything else.”
What no one could imagine was the effect the coronavirus would have on the country over the past 10 months. Huynh got hands-on experience working for 360 Clinic at the other super site at the Anaheim Convention Center from October until early December.
