Charleston has so many video lottery parlors, that there is no room for more. While there is always room for more places, and more supplies for gambling, Charleston doesn’t have anymore room. There just isn’t anymore space for them in this city, city planners say.
Their city law states that gambling places can not be within 2,000 feet of one another. That means there is room, but not according to the law. An additional law states that they are also not permitted within 1,000 feet of churches, libraries, schools, community centers and the State Capitol building.
Already there are more that 50 gaming parlors in the city and at least one request for other each week. City planning and law do not allow for more gambling places. At this point city planners have exceeded all their limits for gambling parlors in the city. |
