HENDERSON, Nev. — A Nevada casino company and the city of Henderson are battling over allegations that City Council members met secretly on an issue about a potential competitor.
The Las Vegas Sun reports that Station Casinos Inc. is accusing city officials of covering up a violation of state open meetings law. An April 15 hearing is set.
The open meeting claim was added in January to a lawsuit Station filed in November alleging the city improperly approved plans to allow unrestricted gambling at a site with no hotel at the now-closed Roadhouse casino on Boulder Highway.
Station cites state law requiring businesses with unrestricted gambling licenses and 15 or more slot machines to have at least 200 hotel rooms.
The city and the Roadhouse say the Roadhouse is exempt.
