Place your bets on who will win a lucrative gaming license to operate a casino in the five boroughs — a competition that is kicking in to high gear.
On Monday, the members of powerful community advisory committees for each of the eight proposed projects were appointed. These committees will get up or down votes on the projects later this summer, and could kill any proposal.
In total, there are eight proposals vying for up to three state gaming licenses. Seven of them are within the city’s limits.
These projects will need these committees’ approval to move onto the next phase of the competition.
