Nevada Gaming Control Board agents will be onsite at the Tropicana April 2 when the storied Strip resort closes its doors as it makes way for construction of a baseball stadium for the relocation of the Oakland Athletics.
Control Board Chairman Kirk Hendrick said in an emailed message Tuesday that Bally’s Corp., the licensee that operates the resort that would turn 67 years old the day after the closure, is required to submit a confidential closure plan to the board. Hendrick could not disclose whether the plan had been filed.
Bally’s executives on Tuesday provided few new details about the Trop shutdown during the company’s fourth-quarter earnings call with investors.
