After years in the making, Mobile city leaders have passed some new zoning regulations. However, some people who live in the historic community of Sandtown are concerned about what this means for them.
Sandtown is the oldest African American neighborhood in the Springhill area. After the Mobile City Council passed some new zoning and development regulations yesterday, there’s a historic marker recognizing Sandtown.
Others, like Rosa Mckoy, attend church at Mount Hebron in Sandtown. Mckoy worries that new regulations will allow businesses to take over the area. In response, Mobile Mayor Sandy Stimpson says the new regulations are a good thing, but protecting Sandtown is also important.
