I was wondering if there is any law that requires a public business to supply handsoap for its restrooms. If you have been in the 2 Rainbow Laundromats in town you will notice that they have no handsoap whatsoever in their restroom, never had any for quite sometime. I once saw an empty soap dispenser in the one on 5th ave.,but they took it out without replacing it. I was brought up as a kid to always wash my hands with soap and water and can’t properly do so if they don’t offer their customers any soap. With the potential for the spread of viruses and whatnot can the health department do anything about that?

if you use these places and you know they dont have soap then it’s real simple BRING YOUR OWN FRICKEN SOAP there problem solved
I know of a person who owned a laundromat and people would steal Handsoap, toilet paper, and paper towels as quickly as he stocked it.
Softsoap is on sale at Menards for 98 cents. Buy a bottle and keep it in your car.

Well by the looks of it, even local businesses are having to implement cost cutting measures to save money. To bad they couldn’t apply for Federal stimulus money to help with their business. Everyone else is doing things like that across the country to help their businesses stay afloat.
Or just don’t pee on yourself anymore.
Yes it is state law to have soap on hand, however as “simplemind” said, people steal the stuff. There are people in this town that are pirates – will steal anything. My suggestion is similar…scarry soap with you, or pee somewhere else.
For “moving forward”, do you not wash your hands when you use a restroom? It’s called hygiene. Prevents illness. Especially in the laundromat on 5th ave.
