The League of Women voters gathered in the Adams County YWCA on Friday afternoon to bring their questions and concerns about the proposed Hastings Casino.

Fielding those questions was a panel of three people connected with the project, two from a city perspective and one who was opposed to the project.

Each one of those presenters talked from a different angle about the process the casino has taken through the city’s government…

The opposition leader, Shannon Hoff, made his case for why the city should not approve the plans, citing several crime and financial statistics that he says work to prove why the casino and racetrack are a bad idea for the city.
