Cabell Board Faces Complaint
WEST VIRGINIA....
A complaint was filed this week in Cabell County Circuit Court against the Cabell-Huntington Board of Health, challenging the county's ban on smoking in bars and video lottery parlors. More than 50 businesses and veterans groups are seeking a preliminary injunction and a declaratory judgment hearing after health board members voted in January to extend the ban. They say the expanded ban is arbitrary, unreasonable and denies the plaintiffs the economically viable use of their property
