Mobile’s pursuit of a population that could make the city the second largest in Alabama is likely to be a slower process, and one that faces some studies in the months to come.
The council is set to meet again on Tuesday for its weekly 10:30 a.m. meeting at Government Plaza.
“You want to know if you are doing the right thing financially and for the health of the city and for its future,” Reynolds said. “This is taking it a step further and I cannot see why it’s necessary nor it’s useful in the future,” Reynolds said. Jason Johnson, a spokesman for Stimpson, said the administration is “still evaluating” the ordinance proposal, acknowledging it will likely be discussed when the council meets for its pre-conference session at 9 a.m.
The city’s latest demographics, according to 2020 Census data, are 51.3% Black-40.8% white, a considerable shift from the 2010 numbers.
