BILLINGS â With a 9-2 vote in the Billings City Council Tuesday, a proposed ordinance to regulate massage businesses with a goal to cut down on human trafficking in the city took its next step to becoming law.
The Council voted to direct city staff to place the draft ordinance on a future regular Council meeting agenda for a first reading. Ordinances usually have two readings in the Council before they re adopted into city code. City Administrator Chris Kukulski said the Council s agendas are packed for the next few regular meetings and it could be four weeks before time is available.
