Senate Bill 753 by state Sen. Dave Cortese (D-San Jose) has been signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom, Cortese's office announced Tuesday. The measure makes changes to the state's laws on abandoned carts, which he previously said were "ineffective."
Under SB753, cities will be allowed to return carts directly to stores instead of impounding them for 30 days. The law also removes a three-day waiting period for carts to be retrieved.
The measure was backed by officials in San Jose, including Mayor Matt Mahan, who said crews spend hours every week pulling carts out of 140 miles of the city's waterways.
Josh Lopez of the South Bay Creeks Coalition said his group has conducted hundreds of cleanups, averaging three to four carts being retrieved from waterways in Santa Clara County.
According to the senator, the measure was also supported by the League of California Cities, the California State Association of Counties and local governments across California.
