Moore, and her husband, Kyle, recently appeared before Lincolnton City Council and successfully petitioned the council to amend their zoning regulations to allow tattoo studios in the Planned Business District of the city. Moore will need to appear before council at a later date to request a conditional use permit in order to do tattoos her new studio which will be called, âInk & Irisâ and be located at 1414 East Main Street in Lincolnton.
