Manalapan residents and visitors can buy alcohol at Publix in town on Sunday mornings after the Town Commission voted to roll back a decades-old restriction that barred sales during early Sunday hours.

The amendment aligns Manalapan more closely with many South Florida communities that have relaxed blue-law-style limits on Sunday alcohol sales in recent years.

Town Manager Eric Marmer said the change came after complaints from residents, such as those who go grocery shopping on Sunday morning.
