A new group called Save Fort Wayne is entering the debate over a proposed casino in Fort Wayne or Allen County.
Two bills are currently under consideration in Indiana that address the potential for a new casino. Senate Bill 70 would allow the Rising Star Casino to move from Ohio County to Allen County. House Bill 1038 would add another casino license instead of relocating an existing license.
21Alive News sent an email to the address listed on the Save Fort Wayne website to request an interview with the group’s organizers. In response, the group wrote, “We are comprised of local professionals in the finance and business sectors. Given the political nature of this project and our obligations to current employers, we have chosen to remain anonymous to protect our professional careers.”
