In response to Mayor Bill de Blasio’s closed-door meetings regarding a proposal to shift to zoned commercial waste collection, six major business groups are calling on the New York City Council to hold public hearings on the issue.
The six groups—the Bodega Association of the United States, the National Supermarket Association, the New York State Restaurant Association, the New York City Hospitality Alliance, the Food Industry Association of New York and New Yorkers for Responsible Waste Management—have sent a joint letter to City Council Speaker Corey Johnson.
