Nick Clemente, son of the developer seeking to build a casino on the Silver Line in Fairfax County, posted on a Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce blog that future legislation should also consider stations in Arlington, Falls Church and Dulles as possible locations for a casino.
“We are disheartened by the decision of Senate Finance to continue the discussion until next year and initiate another study on the potential economic impact of a casino in Northern Virginia,” Clemente wrote. “However, since this matter is concluded, we believe the study should not be narrow in scope. We believe it should also study the potential additional revenue that would be generated from a casino along the Silver Line between Dulles and the District of Columbia line.”
