Riverview Casino

Maybe some of you already know about this, but if you don't, take a moment and get up to speed.  No matter what you're position may be on casinos, the concept of using land along the rivers like this is something we should all worry about.

Here's an excerpt from an email I received:

Riverview Casino Opposition Update!

Our opposition to the Riverview Casino Project continues! Thanks to all of you who have called or written to your County Council Representatives to let them know why you oppose the casino project-- please keep that contact going over the next few weeks so the Council continues to realize how strong the public opposition to this project is.

This Tuesday, October 20, 2009, there will be another St. Louis County Council meeting during which the Council will solicit public comment about the casino project and the proposed zoning change required to make that project happen. There will also be County Council meetings with the opportunity for public comment on October 27 and November 3, 2009. The meetings will be held at 6 p.m. in the St. Louis County Council Chamber, Administration Building, 41 S. Central Avenue, Clayton, MO 63105.

If you are available to attend one of the meetings on either October 20, 27, or November 3 (or can attend more than one), and want to speak to the Council during the public comment period regarding your opposition to this environmentally destructive proposal, please contact MCE at (314) 727-0600 or reply to me by email.
