Billings’ new zoning regulations got a workout Monday night as city council members grappled with the development of a new bar and casino and a residential project near the proposed Inner Beltloop near Alkali Creek.
The bar and casino will be developed in the existing Conoco convenience store and gas station on Mullowney Lane. Its neighbors include three hotels, a Holiday convenience store and Adam & Eve, an adult recreation store.
“I don’t think we could have found a better place for a casino,” said council member Mike Boyett, referring to the 2 years council members and staff spent on creating specific zoning requirements for casinos within Project Re:Code, the city’s new zoning regulations.
