Mississippi Coast casinos in Biloxi and Gulfport are not too happy about RW Development’s plans for a gambling venture, this one on Biloxi’s central beach.
Treasure Bay in Biloxi and Island View Casino Resort in Gulfport, along with the Mississippi Gaming & Hospitality Association, are appealing the Mississippi Gaming Commission’s decision to approve a casino site that RW has been angling to secure for 15 years on the northeast corner of Veterans Avenue and U.S. 90.
Treasure Bay, Island View and the association, which includes all 13 casinos in Harrison and Hancock counties, have filed their appeal of the Gaming Commission’s decision in Harrison County Circuit Court, where Judge Larry Bourgeois is presiding over the case.
