The Gazette--October 11, 2001

The County Council voted today in closed session to appeal a federal judge's ruling last week that the county's new gun show bill is illegal. Federal Judge Marvin Garbis ruled against the bill, saying the county has no right to tell the City of Gaithersburg not to allow the sale of guns within its borders simply because the fairgrounds receives county tax money.

Gun shows have taken place at the Montgomery County Agricultural Center and Fairgrounds in the City of Gaithersburg for 10 years. The county bill denies tax money to any organization, public or private, that allows the display and sale of guns at a multipurpose exhibition facility it owns or controls.
