Weirs Casino Considered

I presume this means charity gaming, not a Foxwoods style facility. I can think of other spots in Laconia where such an operation might be beneficial. Instead of a zoning change to the Weirs, allowing "performance based zoning" or "by special exception" would make more sense to me. As a non-profit, I think the Veteran's Association could run a casino-like operation now, if they thought it would be profitable. I bet they've talked about it and rejected the idea.
