Casino news source: Clarion Ledger - http://www.clarionledger.com Panel OKs plan for new Natchez casino The Associated Press NATCHEZ — The Mississippi Gaming Commission has approved site planning for a new casino in Natchez. Company official Ted Doody said the commission’s action on Thursday was the first step in the licensing process — verifying the zone for gaming was correct. “They’re basically making sure no churches or schools are adjacent to the casino,” Doody said in a www.natchezdemocrat.com article. The commission examined the preliminary site plan and approved the location of the vessel and parking, Doody said. The city of Natchez awarded the Roth Hill land lease to Lane Company in December. Along with a casino, the company plans to create a park in which residents can spend time.
