MS Senate passes bill to expand “go cup” zones

Senate OKs ‘go cup’ expansion for Livingston, others

Lawmakers are giving municipalities not included in Mississippi’s “go cup” law a second shot. Thursday the Senate passed a bill that would allow “go cup” zones to be established in Madison County’s the Town of Livingston, along with other locations.
According to the legislation, Madison County supervisors would only be allowed to establish a “go cup” zone “to the area of not more than fifty (50) acres located southwest of the intersection of Mississippi Highways 22 and 463 in the county and comprising the area or part of the area once constituting the boundaries or part of the boundaries of the former municipality of Livingston, Mississippi.”
