Calhoun City votes to allow sale of alcohol
SUMMARY: Calhoun City, Mississippi, has voted for the first time to permit the sale of alcohol, with a 4-to-1 decision influenced by House Bill 776. Mayor Marshall W.

Local businesses are eager to start, aiming for sales by November, following the successful example set by nearby Bruce in 2022.
