A short-lived Chambersburg ordinance extended protections for people who are gay, transgender, and genderqueer people in regard to employment, housing, and public accommodations.
The measure covered others as well, such as veterans, who are not named in state anti-discrimination law.
The composition of council changed since the ordinance was passed four months ago, however, and Republicans who voted to repeal cited redundancy because such discrimination falls under purview of the State Human Relations Commission.
