Summary
Coconut Creek just launched Florida's very first all-electric garbage truck fleet, but local businesses are footing the bill with higher waste rates to pay for the upgrade. It's a major green win for the city, but it stings for local shop owners who didn't ask for the eco-friendly price tag.
