The White Salmon City Council has voted to ban single-use carryout plastic bags, but Mayor David Poucher says he is considering vetoing the ordinance because of a clause requiring retailers to charge no less than ten cents per paper bag.  Poucher has until October 11 to make a decision, and emphasizes he is in favor of a plastic bag ban.  The Mayor says he doesn’t think the City should enter into an agreement with private industry to require a minimum charge for any item, but he acknowledged that the majority of testimony was in favor of it, and he won’t veto the ordinance unless he gets input from citizens asking him to do it.  Poucher cannot veto only the ten-cent charge but leave the rest of the ordinance in place.  All four of the councilors present at the meeting voted for the ordinance, and if the Mayor vetoes it that could be overridden by a vote of four of the five Council members.  Poucher says he has never vetoed an ordinance in his nearly 12 years as Mayor.
