Marshall might need to extend its city limits to stop a strip club, City Commission Chairman Ed Smith said at Thursday's meeting.

Commissioners seemed uncertain how far the city's extraterritorial jurisdiction extends beyond its limits but they seemed sure they do not want a strip club opening in, or even close to, Marshall.

Smith said Wednesday that a representative for Gregg County residents seeking land on which to build a strip club recently approached Century 21, a claim that Realtor Evan Welch confirmed.
