Casino regulators from the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission will be visiting today three proposed casino sites in Cedar Rapids. According to Racing and Gaming Administrator Brian Ohorilko officials will “get the chance to hear from the general public” in order to address people’s opinion on the proposals as well.
“Those site visits will last approximately 45 minutes each and will take the good part of the morning,” Ohorilko said.
Meanwhile, on October 12th in the city of Emmettsburg, commissioners will be meeting with the vendors in charge of carrying out a gambling market study.
The final vote will take place in November. “The last meeting of the year is on November 16th, that meeting is at the Diamond Jo Dubuque. A decision will be made at that time regarding the Linn County applications,” Ohorilko pointed out.
The casino proposals are:
$169 million Cedar Crossing Casino near the Cedar River
$106 million Cedar Crossing 2.0 – this is a smaller venue
$42 million Wild Rose Cedar Rapids project
