The Climate Advisory Committee is sponsoring a Polystyrene Bylaw at 2022 Subsequent Town Meeting this November. The Bylaw would prohibit food establishments in Reading from using or distributing disposable food service containers, cutlery or other single-use disposable products made from rigid or foam polystyrene. This restriction would apply to food establishments which includes restaurants, mobile food vendors, caterers, public and private schools, farmers markets, civic or religious centers or facilities, any building owned by the Town of Reading, and any establishment requiring a permit to operate in accordance with the State Food Code. If adopted the Bylaw would go into effect as early as summer 2023.

Prior to November Town Meeting the Climate Advisory Committee is holding two public forums in order to receive comment and feedback. 

  • A remote forum is scheduled for Wednesday October 12, 2022 from 7:00PM to 8:00PM. The Zoom information is as follows:
