Gulfport Gaming Development requests more time for casino project
The matter was scheduled to go the the Gulfport Planning Commission on Thursday but has been removed from the agenda.
Gulfport Gaming Development plans to build a $140 million casino resort on 10 acres at the harbor.
Greg Pietrangelo, Gulfport’s director of urban development, said the developers have site approval from the Mississippi Gaming Commission and now are moving ahead with land approvals from the city.
Still on the planning commission agenda for Thursday is a request from DDR Gulfport Promenade to subdivide property north of Interstate 10 near Mississippi 605.
Pietrangelo said DDR sold one parcel to a car dealership and is negotiating with another company to buy property. The city’s approval of the developer’s general plan would set up for the extension of Helen Richards Drive I-10 service road.
Pietrangelo said Daniel Boulevard near the junction of I-10 and U.S. 49 also will need to be extended as Anchor Plaza continues to expand, with another hotel on the way to that area.
