On top of that, it is planned to include a bar and grill, with the potential to further evolve into a luxury hotel with other amenities, such as the conference center. Back then, it was stated that the casino would contain various table games, slot machines, and sports betting offerings. The plans for this casino were announced for the first time in 2021. The city’s officials are happy because of the opening since they have been advocating for the casino for the past decade since the former mayor Scott Eisenhauer started mentioning that building a casino would be a great option to add many jobs and increase the tax revenue in the city. After that, various local officials visited the casino and took a tour to see what they could expect from this long-awaited property. The first part of the casino opened to the public was its Saltgrass Steakhouse, which received its first visitors on May 12.
The works on the construction began thirteen months ago. In March, casino managers paid the city $1 million, which will be used to develop the riverfront. The casino has a month to pay the state a $25 million fee. She said that the revenue will be directed to the government infrastructure projects. Kaufman also commented on all the expenses the casino will have to pay. Interestingly, Wilmot belongs to the family involved in the construction of the casino, owning the Wilmorite Management Group. Some of our team members may be a bit nervous.” Jimmy Wilmot, the Development President of Danville, said: “We are excited to take the next big step in the process and open our casino to the over 21 public. In the beginning, the casino will be open eight hours a day, and it will be closed on Tuesdays only. She commented: “Gaming Board officials were on site, and they went through a number of procedures that are required by law, which includes practice gaming sessions and other regulatory requirements that the casino must meet. Marcus Fruchter, the Gaming Board administrator, issued the license on Friday, Jun 2.īeth Kaufman, the spokesperson for the Gaming Board, said that the casino inspection was conducted, and the casino has passed it. The Illinois Gaming Board approved the temporary operating permit for Golden Nugget Danville, and the casino decided to start using it immediately. However, the grand opening won’t be held now. On Saturday, May 28, at 4:00 p.m., the casino opened its door for the first time.
The long-expected Golden Nugget casino in Danville will finally be opened to the public.
