SUMMARY: During a Long Beach Board of Aldermen meeting, a unanimous decision was made to restate a lease agreement for a casino development in an area without casinos along the Mississippi Gulf Coast. This follows earlier lease negotiations with Long Beach Harbor Resorts for land where an old Kmart was located. Mayor George Bass noted amendments are needed before the final ratification at the next meeting, with plans for a 40-year lease allowing extensions. The city anticipates $500,000 in annual gaming revenue during the initial years. Construction must begin within three years, with gaming operations launched within five years.
