...paint sold in the city annually. Such a measure would provide as much as $1.2 million a year for cleanup efforts and education and prevention programs. Paint-industry officials, understandably upset at the idea, are lobbying against it. ''It's ridiculous to blame us simply because we make the product,'' says Rick Birle, president of Zynolyte Products, a major spray- paint manufacturer based in Carson, Calif. Nonetheless, the proposed spray tax may prove to be the lesser of two evils. The 15 city council members are also considering another measure, which would require store owners to force purchasers to fill...
