The fact that anti-discrimination ordinances yield little to no cases is great! Regardless of whether or not complaints have been filed, the fact of the matter is that they exist should someone need to file a grievance.
Unless I’m mistaken, the city is discussing putting this ordinance on the books and then moving on; however, some people are acting like the city is planning to create an entire anti-discrimination enforcement division that is going to hire thousands of monitors to be stationed in every business in Richmond county.
