On Wednesday, Save the Atlantic City Business District (SaveACBD) and the Castle Coalition held a press conference at City Hall to protest a proposal to designate 24 acres of local businesses next to the former Sands Casino “in need of redevelopment” so they can…
wait for it…
give the land to Pinnacle Entertainment for its new casino. Surprised? Neither are we.
Fortunately, Mayor Scott Evans and Councilmen Marty Small and Steven Moore see this project for what it really is – a land grab. All three attended the rally and spoke out against the abuse of eminent domain.
SaveACBD and the Castle Coalition will continue to fight this bogus proposal so Atlantic City’s entrepreneurs get to keep what they’ve worked so hard to own!
