Legislature Tackles Lottery Retail vs Casino

People living on Portland’s Hayden island see a cluster of lottery retailers as a problem and want some of them closed.  State Representative Tina Kotek is offering a bill to label some of them casinos, especially when the places are there for people to play the lottery. There might be some cheap food and drinks, and cigarettes, but basically they’re there to play the lottery.  Once labeled as a casino the stores would have to revamp their business model.
