MAYOR BOB SCOTT WAS AMONG A SIOUXLAND CONTINGENT THAT TRAVELED TO ALTOONA THURSDAY MORNING TO OBSERVE THE FOUR CASINO PRESENTATIONS TO THE IOWA RACING AND GAMING COMMISSION.
SCOTT SAYS HE HAD NOT PREVIOUSLY SEEN ALL OF THE PRESENTATIONS, BUT WAS IMPRESSED WITH THE PROPOSALS:
THE GAMING COMMISSION ALSO VOTED TO APPROVE THE LEASE EXTENSION FOR THE ARGOSY RIVERBOAT CASINO WITH THE CITY OF SIOUX CITY. SCOTT SAYS THE CITY COUNCIL WILL VOTE ON APPROVING THAT EXTENSION ON JANUARY 28TH.
THE 12 MONTH LEASE HAS AN ADDITIONAL 18 MONTH EXTENSION THAT WILL KEEP THE BOAT OPERATING UNTIL A NEW LAND BASED CASINO CAN BE CONSTRUCTED.
