Tour Guides moves out of committee

Tour Guides in Center City would have to pass a certification test under Councilwoman Blondell Reynolds Brown's legislation that passed out of the Parks and Recreation Committee Wednesday morning. Brown said the bill still has work to do -- defining what exactly constitutes a tour operator, what types to exempt (such as foreign-language or out of town interpreters). The bill could be given final approval as early as March 6.

Another example of City Council not having its priorities straight.
