Description

Not just this McDonald's (others, too: North Park is another) have removed the trash cans from the drive-thru lanes (about 2 yrs ago). McDonald's litter has increased throughout the city. Questions: 1) Is there an ordinance requiring the trash cans and where they should be placed? 2) Was this a franchise (local owner[s]) decision or made at corporate-level? 3) Are the two above cited locations owned by the same franchisee? Obviously, the reason was to save money but Mickey D's bags and cups are everywhere. There will always be some litterers, but if there is no convenient place (and what could be more convenient than in the ordering lane?), then many who might not litter will. Granted, they're lazy, but replacing the cans will help. Burger King (Riverside) has a can, drivers use it, and few BK bags are seen on the ground. What can be done to encourage MdD's to restore the cans?
