2023's Super Bowl is just months away, and ahead of the Big Game, city councilmembers for the host city, Glendale, voted to enact a new ordinance that bans aggressive panhandling in the West Valley City. City officials say the ban is about safety, and has nothing to do with the game.

A new Glendale city ordinance enacted just months before the 2023 Super Bowl will ban 'aggressive panhandling' in the West Valley city. FOX 10's Brian Webb reports.The 2023 Super Bowl, set to be held at Glendale's State Farm Stadium, is less than four months away, as of Oct. 13, and the Glendale City Council has voted unanimously to outlaw panhandling.

Under the new ordinance, it is illegal to aggressively ask for money in any public spaces, near bus stops, banks and other businesses, along with restrictions on city streets. Violators could face a civil citation for a first offense, with harsher penalties thereafter.City leaders insist this has nothing to do with the big game, and everything to do with safety, like cutting down on other matters, such as accidents involving pedestrians.
