BACKGROUND: 

Title 30 of the Clark County Code provides for Neighborhood Casinos, which are considered resort hotels. On June 15, 2021, the Board discussed amending the Clark County Code to reduce the required number of rooms available for sleeping accommodations in resort hotels from 300 rooms to 200 rooms. Staff was directed to proceed with amending the business license code to be consistent with Title 30. This amendment aligns other sections of the Code to be consistent with the definition of a Neighborhood Casino under Title 30. 

The proposed ordinance was introduced at the Board of County Commissioners' meeting on July 6, 2021, and a public hearing was set for July 20, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. Staff recommends approval of the ordinance to amend Chapters 4.08 and 8.04 of the County Code.
