ordinance

Vermonters have launched fundraising campaigns for police to man road closures and officials to dust off old parking ordinances.

The city’s “Safe Stores are Staffed Stores” ordinance is the first of its kind in the country.

“The ordinance is invalidly based. It violates my 1st Amendment rights.”

A local ordinance on the appropriate use of phones, laptops and tablets came into force last week in Toyoake, a largely grey, concrete suburb of the industrial metropolis Nagoya.

In addition, SB 79 would not apply to apartment buildings with three or more units if they are regulated by a city or county’s rent stabilization ordinance, which places limits on yearly rent increases.
