  The Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission released a timeline this week in response to apetition aiming to halt Linn County's efforts to bring a casino to Cedar Ra

The Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission has established a timeline for the review of a petition to build a new casino in Linn County, Iowa. The petition, submitted by a group called "Linn County Gaming Association," seeks to introduce a new gaming facility in the area. The Commission will hold a public hearing on June 19, 2023, to discuss the proposal, allowing community members and stakeholders to voice their opinions. Following the hearing, the Commission will consider the economic impact, community support, and potential competition with existing casinos. A decision on whether to proceed with the licensing process is expected by late summer 2023. This development comes after years of debate over casino expansion in Iowa, with local officials and residents expressing mixed feelings about the potential economic benefits versus the social costs of gambling.
