Beauty Shop Bill Tabled After Council Dispute
City Council tabled an ordinance allowing small beauty and barber shops in select two family and multi family residential zones amid disagreement between Councilmen Williams and Fritz. Fritz called the ordinance discriminatory and insisted no amendments would be accepted. The plan would let limited shops exist without rezoning. Additional notes cover a bus visit to city hall for Metzenbaum staff questions and a first reading to vacate an alley between State and Baker Street.
