A sticker Bowie residents will find on their recycle bins if they include plastic bags in with their other recyclables after July 1. Due to a change in policy at the Waste Management facility in Capitol Heights where the city's recyclables are taken, Bowie officials are asking resident not to include plastic bags with their other recyclables for curbside pickup starting this week. Instead, residents are being asked to take their old plastic bags to retail stores that recycle them separately.
