Luther city ordinances target What cha Smokin BBQ
Tonya Doyle owner of What cha Smokin BBQ Brew Co in Luther says city ordinances on outdoor events noise odors fencing vegetation and fireworks appear designed to curb her business after a 2017 lawsuit over a retaining wall. The council has moved to curb parking traffic and signs along Highway 17 while Doyle plans a gravel parking lot to handle crowds. Mayor Krohn denies targeting the restaurant and cites traffic management as the goal.
