Two casino companies battling for the state's lone slots license were cleared to go forward by the state gaming board while two others will learn their fate later this month — and a fifth contender emerged yesterday with eyes on Tewksbury.
The Massachusetts Gaming Commission yesterday deemed Mass Gaming and Entertainment and PPE Casino Resorts "suitable" to hold state gambling licenses. Mass Gaming, an affiliate of the Chicago-based Rush Street Gaming, was eyeing Worcester for a slots parlor, but the city balked. The company now reportedly is looking at Millbury.
PPE, tied to Baltimore-based casino developer Cordish, has proposed a $200 million slots palace in Leominster.
"Based on an intense background investigation conducted on the business entities and individual qualifiers associated with each applicant, our investigation and enforcement bureau recommended findings of suitability to the commissioners, which the commissioners adopted," MGC spokeswoman Elaine Driscoll said. "What that does is allow these two applicants to move on to Phase 2."
Plainridge Racecourse in Plainville and Raynham Park are also seeking the slots license. The gaming board will rule on their suitability later this month. Penn National Gaming, which dropped its bid for a Springfield casino, announced plans for a $200 million slots parlor in Tewksbury yesterday.
The slots license is expected to be issued this fall.
