Effective January 1, 2024, bag fees collected by your store 안 be remitted to Larimer County. Instead, the fees should be retained by your store and used for the purposes authorized by the State of Colorado.
Colorado House Bill HB23-1285 states that if a local government does not accept carryout bag fees, the store is still obligated to collect and retain the fee. The store must utilize the $.06 per bag fee that would have been remitted to the local government for either of the following purposes:
- Any recycling, composting, waste diversion programs, or related outreach and education activities.
- The purchase of reusable bags.
Copies of the bills that established the carryout bag fee processes are attached for your convenience. The first few pages of HB21-1162 contain definitions that could be helpful when selecting what type of bags qualify as reusable.
