Hornsby Case Rules Prohibition Overreach By City Council
In a recent Hornsby case the court addressed the city council’s power to issue a proclamation banning certain trades within a district. The defendant argued the proclamation was beyond the council’s authority and wrongly described prohibited trades. The judge ruled the order invalid as overly broad and not specification driven, noting it could criminalize ordinary activities like repairing boots or storing a car in a garage. The defense contends further judicial review will follow.
