Resolutions, Ordinances, or Other Climate Legislation

This assessment is based on 2 ordinances adopted by Culver City. The city has enacted two ordinances addressing waste and energy: one prohibits polystyrene food service ware and single-use plastics starting September 2021, with full implementation by January 2023, requiring reusable alternatives and organics-compatible disposable containers across all regulated entities and city facilities; the second establishes a five-year phase-out of all oil and gas operations by November 2026, immediately halting new drilling while requiring operators to submit detailed termination plans including well plugging and site remediation. Together, these ordinances target waste reduction and fossil fuel elimination within city boundaries.
