The Bossier Parish School Board has joined other local taxing authorities in offering Live! Casino and Hotel a tax break to encourage the company to expand its construction plans.
BPSB joins the Bossier Parish Police Jury in offering the incentive. The City of Bossier City will consider the cooperative endeavor agreement at a future meeting.
Live! is investing $250 million in the construction and renovation of the gaming facility. The tax break encourages the casino to add additional rooms and hotel suites, an additional restaurant and bar, an RV Park, and upgrades to the pool facilities.
Patrick Jackson, attorney for the Bossier Parish Police Jury, explained the tax break to school board members.
