He referenced the previous <br />discussion of the January 24, 2006 NI/CE committee meeting and the three previous <br />recommendations provided to the committee by the staff. <br /> <br />The options are iisted as follows: <br /> <br />. Require immediate on-site cart containment system within six (6) months for all <br />retail merchants. <br /> <br />. Require new establishments and all those over 20,000 square-feet to install an <br />on-site cart containment prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy. Existing <br />businesses may remain under existing retrieval system unless a determination is <br />made that the business is in violation of a pre-determined threshold. In that <br />case, Ihe store would be required to install an on-site cart containment system. <br /> <br />. Allow merchants to provide a plan detailing their own containment system. If the <br />merchant's plan fails to keep carts on-site they must then install a city-approved <br />cart containment system. <br /> <br />- <br />
