Natchez casino groundbreaking delayed
The Associated Press
NATCHEZ, MISS. --A permit delay has forced the groundbreaking planned this month for the Roth Hill Casino to be pushed back to April 23.
President of Natchez Enterprises Ted Doody said the delay is due to a permit from the Corps of Engineers that hasn't yet been received.
He said the $50 million project, which includes a hotel and park, will proceed once the company receives the permit.
The company's site plan has already received unanimous approval from the Mississippi Gaming Commission.
Doody has said the completion date for the two-story, 40,000 square-foot casino has been projected for the summer of 2009. |
