It would be nice if they were at least upright, with the lid closed, and up next to the house instead of strewn about the front yard someplace. Better yet in the garage or behind the house out of sight. It should not take a City Ordinance for this. Too bad common sense is not very common. FJB

These were already banned when we had an election. Now we're being forced to use roll carts even though there was no election. How do we go from a ban to being forced to use them? They are ugly. They are inconvenient. The bags would get picked up, and we were done.

Most people likely plan to store the carts where they're out of the way.

No concerns at all. It will be better than just setting trash bags outside and letting animals tearing bags open and releasing garbage. all of the towns I have seen they are beside the garage or a place easy to get to them

Why would I? i dont live in that sink hole of a town.

Many Columbian's need something to whine about. Just about anything will do.

Libs really want 30 hours of sick time for 1 hour work called Univ Basic Income. This is a great example of an organic Missouri effort to change our Constitution, you can tell by the homemade signs. NOT, another dark money effort to buy an amendment when they fail in legislature. End this BS. FJB

Paid leave is good for families and employers--it helps attract and retain the best talent, reducing employee turnover costs, and helps alleviate financial strain on families. It's a win-win.

Paid sick leave is needed for all workers. How can you pay medical bills if you aren't getting paid while you are sick or recovering from surgery?

Richard Von Glahn

No one should have to choose between taking care of themselves or a child and missing a pay check. This is an obvious yes.

Small Missouri employers have enough problems just meeting their payrolls. More government intrusion is not the answer.

Rick Smith

You think prices are high now. Wait until they raise them some more if this passes.

Zaos Gonzolez

If you don't want to be an employee, START A BUSINESS. If you can't start a business, LEAVE BOONE COUNTY. It's quite simple.

Harry D

Businesses will leave not only Boone County but Missouri if this passes. Businesses will also try extra hard to automate and replace people with AI robots to keep their costs down. The problem with marxist socialists is that they ultimately run out of other people's money.

You accepted the benefits or lack there of when you accepted the job. If they offer overtime see if you can store all or part of your hours for unforeseen circumstances. If not look for a company that provides leave and quit trying to force small businesses out.
