The ordinance will not af} feet any operators of such . vehicles now existing so long :as the present occupancy ! status is not changed, but present owners will not be permitted to either sell or lease J such vehicles. The discussion which led to j the passage of the ordinance ! was precipitated by a request ! from Dan Limer, who operates a news stand on Main street across from the court house. Limer who now lives in a trailer near Hall's Spring on the Macon road had sought permision to move his trailer to a lot he owns on Main | street next to Puritan Cafe II and had also requested that j he be permitted to connect I with the town's water and j sewer lines.

Under this guise the late Ed j Gillam once operated an ofI fice on the lot where Hunter Drug Store now is situated, i The second case was that of Dan Limer whose news stand is on wheels The commissioners now take ?J* a dim view of such practices, niS although they said that Limer will be permitted to continue ftof-pi ,0 operate his stand in its , present quarters.
