Proposed Slots Ban Advances

An ordinance that would prohibit slot machines anywhere in Frederick County moved forward Tuesday when the county commissioners voted unanimously to hold public hearings on the measure.

The ordinance would make Frederick, named as a potential slots location during this year's General Assembly, the first Maryland county to ban the machines through an amendment to its zoning ordinance. Hearings will likely be held in June by the county planning commission and in August by the county commissioners.
