To Ink or Not To Ink
World renowned tattoo artist, Matt Stebly is trying to bring his art to downtown Ocean Springs.
But the Planning Commission is not allowing it. The Ocean Springs Planning Commission voted 3 to 2 against his move.
His tattoo parlor is currently located about a mile from downtown in St. Martin.
Stebly feels it is unfair that zoning laws allow for bars and nightclubs to be downtown but leave tattoo shops out.
Mayor Connie Moran has taken to Facebook to ask citizens their opinion of his shop being downtown and Stebly says he is overwhelmed by the support in his favor.
