Podcast: Collins Removes Erie County from Seneca Lawsuits
In his first bold move as County Executive, Chris Collins announced today that he is removing Erie County as a party to the two ongoing lawsuits attempting to block consrtuctuon of a permanent Seneca Buffalo Creek casino in downtown Buffalo.
“Casino gaming already exists in Downtown Buffalo,” said Collins. In its current form, however, the casino is only attracting local visitors. The Seneca’s plans for a permanent casino will be a destination, helping to improve local tourism efforts. In addition, the casino plan also calls for a three acre public park. This green space will beautify the cobblestone district and improve quality of life for families living in that neighborhood.”
