\"long-beach-yacht-club\"<\/a>Casino developers are looking to push for a center in Long Beach. They are now seeing the Long beach Yacht Club as a potential site. A representative from the Harbor Resort said earlier this week that as of now nothing has been finalized and that things are still under discussion.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There was a meeting of all the members of the club recently where there was a discussion of whether or not the property in question, a waterfront piece of land that can potentially serve as a site where a casino can be developed. The price that was mentioned was at around $1.5 million. Mayor of Long Beach, Billy Skellie said that there are about 60 years of time left on the lease with the club. For a casino to be built in this mentioned property, there is no need for transferring or selling, or even relocating from there. The mayor pointed out that the proposal can be brought to the table with or without the Yacht Club’s involvement. He added that it would make for a cleaner looking property on the waterfront rather than going for a building on the US 90.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

While the town started buzzing about the possibility of a casino in the region, the mayor reminded businesses and people that it is still a proposal and nothing is set in stone. The Mayor has taken a neutral stand on the subject and is seemingly not pro or anti casino right now. After having seen both possibilities, one on the highway and one on the waterfront, he added that there has been no official presentation to the city on either.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Gambling was made legal in the region in the year 1990, but Long Beach is yet to get a full fledged casino and both the city as well as local residents have been wrestling with the idea since.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
