SUMMARY: Long Beach leaders have approved an agreement to develop a casino on the former Kmart property, a deal nearly ten years in the making. The Long Beach Board of Aldermen unanimously granted a 40-year lease to Long Beach Harbor Resorts, owned by Jim Parish, who also runs a restaurant at the harbor. Construction must begin within three years and the casino must open within five. Mayor George Bass emphasizes this might be the city’s only chance for a casino, which he believes could boost the local economy and provide funds for the school district, alongside a million dollars for first responder infrastructure.

In the next five years, a casino could be opened in Long Beach.
