Casino Cash: $
Casino "Facts" ? There are none.

Whether you are voting for or against having a casino, there are NO facts to back up your decision:

No operator chosen -- no guarantee that it is the local group that wants it

No location chosen

No design to review

No actual $ dollar numbers (since revenue is unknown) -- and no cost statements about what local police, et al , will need to increase budgets

No actual dollar amounts stated to go to either city or country -- depends on whether it is built in the city or not, for example

No enforceable payments to help the area's other tourism in any way

And national casino expert states that the money will mostly be from the local economy, not from region.

Let's just state that there are no facts to vote on. And let's also state that the signs should be in Engish and Spanish. In fact, mostly Spanish, given the local population percentages.

One fact, I guess, is that money will be made by someone. And costs will be paid by us.
