Billings City Council

City Council members, or at least seven of them, must really have a set. $143 million to fund all of their hopes and dreams for a big recreation center.

Typically, when the phrase "bought City Hall" is used, it means something like you have politicians or city officials in your pocket. In this case, you can actually purchase Billings' City Hall.

Here's your chance to have an impact on how the City of Billings conducts business. From Animal Control to Zoning, the deadline to apply for these volunteer positions is November 14th.

Here's the million dollar question... will it just push crime elsewhere?

The city council passed some new updated zoning rules last night. The one rule I have never understood is the 600-foot rule.

The so-called non-discrimination ordinance was rejected in a 7-4 vote by the Billings City Council, as council members decided not to take up the issue following a lengthy public comment session.

The divisive NDO debate is back in front of the Billings City Council, and the Billings Police Department sent out a notice to local media with the subject "Monday Night City Council Security Measures."

As I was thinking about it, I thought maybe they just know the things that could be cut from the budget in order to add police officers and firemen without increasing taxes again.

If you're looking for someone to give you a fair rundown of what happened at the city council meeting, or a historical perspective about issues facing Billings School District 2- Larry Brewster is the guy to talk to. That's why I was quite surprised to hear that Billings City Councilman Larry Brewster will be announcing his resignation from the council during Monday night's meeting.
