The Jackson Board of Aldermen will likely reconsider a fireworks ban during its meeting tonight.
The ban was passed 4-2 on a motion at a meeting two weeks ago. The ban sparked heated debate, and enough aldermen may now oppose the ban that it will be overturned. The Southeast Missourian will attend the meeting, and the story will be posted on semissourian.com tonight.
