Possibility Of A New Casino At Palmer

The local officials will be voting on a deal with Mohegan sun and if all goes well, the deal could give them a lot of money as the town will receive an upfront payment of 3 million dollars. Further, if the deal is successful, the city will get 15.2 million dollars annually too. In exchange, permission will be given to the company to build a casino there.

The council president Philip Hebert told that he is still considering if the town needs such facilities and he will even be looking into tax bases before coming to any conclusion.

The CEO of Mohegan Tribal gaming authority was optimistic about the plans as he stated that the total revenues were going to increase hugely. These days, one can find a lot of online casino software for sale but even then the locals of Palmer are extremely excited with the new plan of having a casino.

There are people who are concerned with the kind of crime that a casino will encourage. However, Mohegan Sun is optimistic about clinching the deal. There are two other companies that are fighting to obtain the license as there is only one resort casino license that will be given in western Massachusetts. The verdict is not yet out and it remains to be seen what will be the outcome. However, the plan of a new casino at Palmer has created a lot of stir and buzz.

If the government agrees to the decision to allow the casino, the tax opportunities are bound to increase.
