ral appeals court struck down Redondo Beach’s controversial day laborer ordinance, the City Council late Tuesday delayed a vote on whether to appeal the ruling to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The city’s 1989 ordinance bars individuals from standing on street corners and soliciting work from motorists. Last week, the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals called the ordinance an "unconstitutional restriction on speech" in a 9-2 decision.
Late Tuesday, after two closed sessions, City Atty. Mike Webb announced that the council had "no reportable action." He added that the item will be put on the council agenda for the Oct. 4 meeting.
The council has 90 days from Friday to file an appeal.
