General feeling after the committee meeting is that it's likely to pass unanimously. Now back to my notes for item VI A

Motion to repeal passed unanimously. The ordinance is history.

One extra note from my research on this that may come in handy for others dealing with similar issues: LGC229.001 was renumbered from LGC215.001 in 1997, which causes a bit of a snag in finding the revisions prior to that date. The language "by a person other than a person licensed to carry a concealed handgun under Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government code" was added to (b)(6) by SB60, 74th Legislature, effective 9-1-1995. Thus, in the case of Stephenville's ordinance, (passed in 1996) it could be shown that the council did not have the authority to enact it at the time it was passed.
The text of the relevant bill is available here:
