I agree something needed to be done, but I'm not sure the one-size-fits-all tags are the way to go. Why does a couple (or single person) have the same amount of tags as a family of 6? Or someone taking care of an adult child with health issues?
I preferred the see through bags (and one opaque bag for privacy) system, where the waste collector leaves bags with obvious recyclable or compostable content. It would be a more equitable solution.
And what happens to items that don't go in a garbage bag? A fence that was taken apart? Drywall? Larger items (furniture, old toys..)?
And the City will still take metal BBQs that can be recycled?
Personally, it doesn't effect us. We take out a small metal garbage can once a month, if that.
