Yes and No. My husband and I, with our 3 children hardly use that much. But, my two brother-in-laws that live with us order out constantly, that fills up the trash horribly fast.

If the bags were 55 gallon bags, my vote would have been yes.

NO not at all! An average household would be a family of 4. I think it would of been more fair to say 4 bags? I agree, people who use have more trash should pay more to dispose of it but the limit should be more than2 bags. I have a daycare and 3 kids so I have tons more. But 2 bags? come on!

The question of, “are two bags enough for your household” should be, “what size trash bags are big enough for your household”. To our family of 5, it is one 55 gallon bag a week. If the city would provide the 55 gallon bags instead of these smaller ones, that would be very helpful.

This is a scam by the City of Columbia. There needs to be a class action lawsuit by citizens also; for charging recycling fees for almost a year and not delivering. There has to be some low ball attorneys out there looking to make a buck or two!!!!

I have a 7 person household and have no idea how I am going to afford to buy the extra bags needed every week. I am very upset about this decision.

We have to commute to work, approximately 70 miles every day. We fill up once a week, and the cost has risen from an average of $36.50 before the Iran war, to now $55.00 each week. We now have to budget more for gas than we did. And there is still nothing to show for any of this pointless conflic

Im driving about 81.6 miles a day to get my son to daycare and then myself to work. Car averages 21 mpg and requires minimum 91 octane fuel. $70 twice a week plus what my husband spends in fuel for just traveling back and forth to work and home. Keeping son home 2 days from daycare to save on fuel.

While no one enjoys paying more $ gas is cheap for what you get.

I wish puppet Biden did not drain the strategic petroleum reserve in a failed political scheme, much like his unconstitutional student loan forgiveness, to buy votes. The oil pipelines to Canada, that Biden stopped, would be handy about now too. Voting for future Democrats will be very limited.

Trump had just refilled it, after Obama drained it down to nothing.

A new tax is not the answer to the city's budget problems. City leaders need to live within your means, like everyone else. Vote NO on the new taxes.

We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen. Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.

Almost as bad an idea as replacing income taxes with higher sales taxes!
