Legal Question in Business Law in Texas
city ordinance
The City of Pulchritude enacted an ordinance banning from its sidewalks all machines dispensing publications consisting wholly of commercial advertisements. The ordinance was enacted because there was a concern that litter from publications distributed on the sidewalks was affecting the aesthetic quality of the streets. Pulchritude continued to allow machines dispensing other types of publications on the sidewalks. As a result of the city ordinance, 30 of the 300 sidewalk machines that were dispensing publications in the City were removed. Is this City ordinance constitutional? Why or why not?

Re: city ordinance
I would love to take this case in front of a court. It sounds to me that, perhaps there may be violations of equal protection laws.
