City approves monthly license for itinerant vendors

The city commission passed an ordinance in special session requiring itinerant vendors and auctioneers to obtain a $700 monthly license, effectively barring the trade. Violations carry fines of $50 to $200. Jewelry dealers backed the measure to curb nuisance from shoddy goods and to protect legitimate business. The ordinance takes effect immediately as an emergency measure.
