Support appreciated for ban on plastic bags
As a resident of District 7, I have attended several of the recent Beaufort County Council hearings on the proposed ordinance to ban single-use plastic grocery bags. I want to commend District 7 Councilman Mike Covert for his active participation in support of preserving our critical coastal environment as well as our “home rule” option for dealing with such issues.
