The people who were screaming about not having a chance to voice their opinions have actually gotten and will have too many chances to make noise. We’re looking at 3 levels of approvals that require community input.
The first was the city’s, which is complete now. That was citywide, and required input from all of the CBs, and only made it possible for the 3 casinos that are a part of this process.
The second level, which we are going through now, is the approval for the land-use zoning on individual sites.
The 3rd level will occur after June of next year when the 6 member panels hold hearings.
This process could have and should have been streamlined and simplified.
