SLIDELL, La. Following a controversial meeting that ended close to midnight, the St. Tammany Parish Council decided voters will have a say in whether a casino opens in Slidell.
The 8-to-6 vote was largely split by representatives from east and west St. Tammany Parish. The state delegation - terrible, terrible thing to put something up like this to purposely try to split the parish east and west and not even have the guts to show up and explain yourself, said Council Member Chris Canulette, who represents District 8 in Slidell.
