Tuscaloosa mulling ban on some businessesTUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — The city of Tuscaloosa is considering a temporary ban on some kind of businesses as it rebuilds from last year's tornado. The City Council on Tuesday will continue a discussion of a proposed moratorium that could affect businesses including pawn shops, check-cashing stores, tattoo shops and tobacco stores. Councilman Kip Tyner is supporting the ban. He says he wants to rebuild tornado-ravaged parts of the city with better businesses than existed before the twister in 2011. The Tuscaloosa News (http://bit.ly/Q6yQ5d ) reports the neighboring city of Northport already has enacted a similar moratorium. Tuscaloosa Mayor Walt Maddox says staff members aren't clear on exactly what type of ban the council wants to review. |
