The local gambling commission is seeking public input and business analysis regarding the Southeastern Mass casino licence.

US.- The Massachusetts Gaming Commission (MGC) has announced that it is accepting feedback for specific questions regarding the Southeastern Mass casino licence. The submission deadline is March 16.

The regulator is interested in whether it should consider re-opening Region C and if it should engage in a new gaming market study before deciding to re-open the application process for it. It is interested in feedback on these questions, relevant to the Category 1 (resort-casino) license in Southeastern Massachusetts (Region C).

“We encourage the participation of the public and other interested parties as we conduct critical due diligence on this complex matter that will inform our ongoing evaluation and examination of what is in the best interest of Region C and the Commonwealth,” said Massachusetts Gaming Commission Chair Cathy Judd-Stein.

“The RFI and public comment processes will strengthen our ultimate decision as to whether to reopen the application process for Region C. We are grateful for the public’s ongoing input in our efforts to successfully implement the gaming law and to accomplish our work in a manner that is fair, transparent and participatory.”
