Santee Councilman Rob McNelis wants the city to require retail stores to return shopping carts if removed from their property, according to a recent U-T San Diego article. And he's not the only city officials or local to see the problem with wandering shopping carts to nearby streets.
The U-T said both El Cajon and Escondido implemented rules in recent years to keep carts out of nearby neighborhoods, roadways and waterways.
McNelis told the paper that he dislikes the idea of more regulations, but returning carts to public property is burdening the city.
