The owner of Windbag Saloon has reapplied for a conditional use permit to allow for the installation of more than five gaming machines as part of a planned expansion of the popular Last Chance Gulch watering hole.
Helena Planner II Michael Alvarez confirmed the re-application and said a public meeting on the topic is slated for 6 p.m. April 12 in the commission chambers and via Zoom, an online video conference platform.
Owner Matt Schmechel said in an interview Monday that the initial application for the conditional use permit was withdrawn to consider feedback, which he said he feels is represented in the new application.
