Councilman Taylor stated that he was in favor of the recycling of the residential trash and the business but that this particular document is too long when all that's being done is asking the residents to recycle their glass bottles, their cans, the plastic bottles, the green lawn cuttings and the burdens that the law would impose on the residents and the business become horrendous in the sense that when they are all added together they become so complex and compounded that the businesses that are leaving California, the people who are losing their homes because of the different fees that are passed on to all these propery owners is becoming horrendous. Mr. Taylor reiterated that he was in favor of recycling and supported the concept of it but they are missing the point when there are thousands of new chemicals being put on the market every year that are toxic and existing problems such as disposable diapers, styrofoam used for cups and packaging food but this document does not address the problem coming from industry manufacturing.
