The latest in the plastic bag saga: Edmonds might ban them before Seattle does, thanks to quick and decisive work by their city council (now that's a foreign concept!). According to HeraldNet, Edmonds is well on its way to already implementing what could be a quick vote on the issue--the major Edmonds grocery store has already stopped using plastic to bag groceries, except for the small bags used to separate meat and fish packages, and in their version of the ban, the sanitary bags will remain legal. If they manage to ban plastic bags before August, that would make Edmonds the first city in Washington to regulate them. We always have thought of Edmondsians as trend-setters...!
