Read-Only Content Full Name June Safford Email backtobach85@gmail.com Phone (406) 438-7189 Comments I am a member of Gallatin Valley Beyond Plastics. This year's Earth Day focus is The Plastic Planet and 60% reduction of plastic reduction is aimed for by 2040. Bozeman has an opportunity to put local control into practice by bringing a ballot initiative banning single use plastic bags and styrofoam to the City of Bozeman that would start us in this direction. Plastics are toxic. They are a human health issue as well as an ecological one. This year is the best year to bring the anti single-use plastic ballot to the people. We are asking the City Commission to change their rules about even numbered vs odd numbered years. This November we will have a major out pouring of voters. A good time to make Bozeman a leader in tackling plastic pollution. Thank you.
