The San Diego City Council voted to ban any retail store with more than 90,000 square feet with at least 10% of that space devoted to selling groceries and other merchandise that is not subject to sales tax. The average Wal-Mart Supercenter is 185,000 square feet and sells groceries. The vote was 5-3 for the ban. Mayor Jerry Sanders has vowed to veto the ban, but the City Council can override a veto with five votes.
