A meeting is being scheduled for Monday by the Springfield City Council to give the public another chance to weigh in on a proposed plastic bag ban.
A subcommittee will meet at the Rebecca M. Johnson School at 6 p.m.
The proposal specifically calls for a ban of single-use plastic checkout bags at stores.
The council was considering final passage of the ban last month but agreed to delay the vote to seek more public input.
