The Granada Hills South Neighborhood Council's beautification committee has identified abandoned shopping carts as a significant neighborhood nuisance and has proposed a resolution to Councilman Greig Smith's office to take action.

• The resolution to reduce abandoned shopping carts includes:
• Requiring stores to install systems to lock wheels upon removal from the store
• Requiring carts to have store phone numbers on them
• Impound all abandoned carts
• Make it illegal to take a cart from a store
