...Title
Abandoned Shopping Cart Policy Options.
...Recommendations
Direct the City Manager to:
(a) Conduct an outreach process with retailers in San José to evaluate options for enhancing the City’s efforts to prevent and retrieve abandoned shopping carts, including the possibility of the City establishing a cart retrieval program, implementing an abandoned shopping cart retrieval program on a voluntary cost-recovery basis, adopting enhanced regulations as part of the City’s existing regulatory program, and other options as retailers may wish to propose.
(b) Advocate for changes to state law that would remove barriers to the City recovering its costs for retrieving abandoned shopping carts.
