This is the accompanying guide to the Stop Waste Model Ordinance for Food Service Packaging Reduction and Reuse. The guide further explains the menu of policy options for Cities in Alameda County to consider adopting as part of their efforts to address single-use plastics and food packaging waste issues. These policies prioritize reuse and the reduction of disposable materials used in food service and beverage packaging. This guide and the Model Ordinance can also be used outside of Alameda County.
