Alhambra : New Rules for News Racks
The City Council voted unanimously Monday to require that sidewalk racks selling sexually explicit magazines and newspapers install screens to block the lower two-thirds of the publication.

The measure will go into effect in late June if the council approves a second reading of the ordinance at its May 27 meeting.
