Sudbury -
Rep. Tom Conroy, state representative for Lincoln, Sudbury, and Wayland, invites area residents to join him for a public forum on expanded gaming in Massachusetts on Thursday, Sept. 24, at 7:30 p.m. in the Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School Auditorium.
The forum will include a presentation on current research on potential gaming in the state, such as resort-style casinos, slot machine parlors, racinos, etc. This will be followed by a discussion of the potential benefits and costs of each type of gaming, including the number of jobs that may or may not be created in the Commonwealth, the estimated amount of revenue the state could expect, the cannibalization affect on lottery revenues for towns and cities, and the estimated social costs.
The forum is intended to be interactive, so that questions and answers are part of the discussion throughout the evening. Constituents can forward questions to Conroy before the event at Thomas.conroy@state.ma.us.
For more information, call 617-722-2460 or e-mail Thomas.conroy@state.ma.us.
