Subject: EPS BAN Ordinance
Dear Mayor and Council Members

I urge you to pass the EPS BAN Ordinance. Every form of information concludes that the use and misuse of Expanded Polystyrene is
harmful to our environment, wildlife and our health. It is actually inconceivable how the manufacturing community duped the American
population by creating this noxious and poisonous EPS into a food serving product for the past 30 years. Now, it has become so normal and
acceptable container that some can't fathom a world without it. Each citizen in SLO needs to be responsible to take care of our city, rivers
that lead to the ocean and beaches. The elimination of EPS is one simple way, and unfortunately it takes a government ordinance to get
people to comply. Finally, we will all be healthier and one more step towards a greener environment.
