Victory for Long Beach Residents: Denial of permits overturned

And from Picayune and Pearl River County

A trip down thru Hancock County over to Harrison County to the Long Beach Alderman meeting where the Mississippi Center for Justice had filed an appeal on the denial of permits for eight MEMA cottages. Voting 4 to 2 - the denial was overturned. A victory for the residents in attendance, Mississippi Center for Justice, and those who had showed up to support the effort including Cheri Honkala - an old supporter of homeless causes.
