Changes to pawnshop ordinance considered
Placeholder Image
Rather than face litigation, Gainesville City Council is expected to amend a pawnshop ordinance that has prohibited a new TitleMax from opening. “We were willing to work with the business,” Councilman George Wangemann said. As first reported in The Times in February, the TitleMax at 719 Jesse Jewell Parkway ran afoul of an ordinance restricting the location of pawnshops across the city.
