SUMMARY: As Election Day approaches, voters are preparing and deciding on proposed tax referendums. In George County, residents can vote on a new sales tax to fund the “Pennies for Parks” program, aimed at enhancing youth sports facilities. This initiative includes a one-cent sales tax on restaurants and a three percent tax on hotels, with plans already in place for new soccer fields. Meanwhile, Ridgeland voters will consider a sales tax increase to expand Freedom Ridge Park, adding various recreational facilities. Both referendums highlight local investment in community sports and recreational development.

SUMMARY: Magnolia Bluffs Casino in Natchez closed on Friday due to a technical issue linked to its parent company, Saratoga Holdings. As of three days later, the casino remains shut, with security barring access. The issue has also affected Saratoga’s other casinos in New York and Colorado. Amy Brannigan, the company’s marketing director, confirmed they are working to resolve the problem but did not provide a timeline for reopening. Some social media comments expressed skepticism about the nature of the closure, despite the company’s insistence that it involves only IT problems. The casino was taken over by Saratoga in October 2022.
