Nevada Gaming Control Board Chairman Brin Gibson is stepping down at the end of November, the governor’s office announced Monday.
Gibson, whose term was set to expire in January, told Gov. Steve Sisolak earlier this year that he planned to pursue a new professional opportunity and not seek reappointment, according to the press release.
Control Board member Brittnie Watkins, whom Sisolak appointed to the board in April 2021, will take over as chairman of the normally three-member board for the December meeting, which is expected to include a request by Hard Rock International to acquire the operations of The Mirage from MGM Resorts International for $1.1 billion.
