DATE: 2/5/98
SPECIAL.MESSAGE:
It came to my attention when a copy of our ordinance-was requested by another municipality that
ours does not allow actually another bed and breakfast to be established here. The existing ones
were grandfathered. Look over this copy of our ordinance and see if we want to change it. I
don't know of any one contemplating opening one, but J'd hate to miss out on another BarksdaleIsom House, especially if it would save-a historical structure.
