City of Hollywood Single Use Plastic and Polystyrene Ordinance in Public Parks, Offices and Beaches

The Florida Legislature has taken away the ability of cities and counties to ban polystyrene in all areas except municipal property. That's why our Broward Chapter is working with the City of Hollywood to ban polystyrene foam food-ware and single use plastics on all city property. This is a first, but important step for the county to take in reducing plastic pollution.

On February 5, 2020 the City of Hollywood passed an ordinance to keep single use plastics out of City offices, buildings and at city functions and events.
