Produce dealer wins round in Yeadon peddler case
A Delaware County judge issued a preliminary injunction blocking Yeadon Borough from enforcing its peddler ordinance aimed at a mobile produce seller, Charles Dougherty of Philadelphia. Residents opposed the rule arguing it targeted his business, while Dougherty’s attorney called him an inflation fighter with low prices. The ruling found the ordinance too broad and vague, leaving the door open for future hearings and possible alternate codes.
