A city council is set to vote on an ordinance related to gambling machines. The machines, also known as eight-liners, would be outlawed if the ordinance passes. This decision would make the city the fourth in Galveston County to take such action.
The vote is scheduled to take place on the second and final reading. If the ordinance is approved, it would bring the total number of cities in Galveston County with such a ban to four.
Further details about the ordinance and the city's decision-making process are available from the source.
