Dear All, I have been in contact with Stephanie Dick from Zero Bouteilles Plastique (copied), based in Arles, France regarding tagging establishments in OpenStreetMap offering water bottle refill for a small fee. Stephanie is also involved in Zero Waste France.
The rationale for including establishments in a refill network which require a small payment is that they often need to add a cooling fountain or a fountain which offers fizzy water. Also allowing a store owner to charge for water refills is often the only way to get them to stop selling plastic bottles. I suggest adding an third key within the drinking_water:refill namespace, "drinking_water:refill:fee=yes" for establishments which charge a small fee for water bottle refills. The requirement to have a sticker or a sign showing the inclusion in a refill network or being an "independent" refiller is unchanged. If a tag is agreed, on our App we plan to differentiate between free and paying refill establishments using different colors. An example image of a water fountain in blue and a cafe in orange. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1RxP8r-Vtl8nWFiCiZ_8wIWmo-ULb5fta Best regards, Stuart
