A federal lawsuit filed against Horseshoe Casino in Baltimore claims contracts for the construction of the casino were not sufficiently awarded to minority businesses.
The project received federal housing funds earmarked for that purpose. The complaint was filed by Celestial Concrete, the Maryland Business Clergy Partnership and an unnamed individual.
The plaintiffs said that rather than providing contracting opportunities for minority businesses and training and employment for low-income individuals, as required by the US Housing and Urban Development Department for recipients of the funding, the city fraudulently received the funds.
The company said in a statement that Horseshoe Casino Baltimore "vehemently denies" the lawsuit's claims.
