‘Tis the season of Pennsylvania casinos undergoing license renewal hearings. Wind Creek and Hollywood Casino at Penn National Race Course are in the process of theirs, and now it’s Presque Isle Downs & Casino’s turn.
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB) announced a license renewal date for the Erie property, which has been set for Sept. 25.
Doug Harbach, director of communications for the PGCB, confirmed to PlayPennyslvania on Friday that Presque Isle Downs & Casino has not technically been subject to a license renewal since 2015.
However, a change of control from Eldorado Resorts, Inc., to Churchill Downs in 2018 “reset” the renewal clock, as Harbach explained.
