What happened
The council voted to keep casino development as an option for the 270-acre Point Molate waterfront site. The decision passed 5-1 with Rogers voting no and Bates absent. This decision stems from a 2006 lawsuit settlement that requires the city to consider casino use as part of any development at the site.
The meeting ran unusually long, from 6:30 p.m. to 12:40 a.m., suggesting extensive discussion on this single major agenda item.
