Rep. Jay Trumbull
A Northwest Florida lawmaker is reviving a measure that would allow businesses to sue local governments for enacting “arbitrary and unreasonable” ordinances.
Sen. Jay Trumbull, R-Panama City, filed SB 170 on January 24. The measure has been referred to the Community Affairs Committee, which meets next on February 8, and the Rules Committee, which meets the following day. There is no House companion.
