FYI from Sandy Annunziata's Facebook

"How and where we invest is based on a model of risk. We have NO confidence in this Council, therefore our level of risk goes from acceptable and manageable to unacceptable and unmanageable. Investment in Fort Erie would not be advisable."

Political will in the investment community IS A VERY REAL CURRENCY.

I guess it isn't happening folks

I hope this isn't true because it would be a real shame. I searched and found nothing on this so until some kind of press release or news item comes up, I will take this with a grain of salt for now.

Heard on the news this morning that they are setting a date for a meeting with the OMB on this track. So maybe not dead yet.

They cant even decide on a time to hold hearings about the race way

Im afraid this will never happen.... also I heard rumors that they lost almost all there financial backing..

And a year or two from now, the concept of a race track in Ft. Erie will be back, likely with the same results, yet again.

Wow, quoting myself! I've heard talk about a track in Ft. Erie for about 25 years now, still nothing in place!

Probably what the opponents are hoping if they can hold it off long enough. Nimby's.
