The Lewes City Council has conditionally approved a measure that would keep people from openly carrying weapons into municipal settings.
The Salisbury Daily Times reports that the town is using a new power given by state legislation which has not yet been signed by the governor.
Governor Jack Markell’s office says it has not yet gotten to his desk and the resort made implementation dependent upon the governor’s signature.
The resort currently restricts the right to open carry within the town limits with exception for hunters and police officers.
The paper said that the police chief did say that the ordinance would not keep people with concealed carry weapons away from government buildings or meetings.
