Dear Gaming Boardmembers:
As a voting, tax payer I am urging you (The Gaming Control Board)
not to rush into giving Barden and Neil Bluhm control on the
Pittsburgh Casino. Mr. Barton casino license should be pulled.
Mr. Barden had no right to sell something that he doesn,t own. He
should have talked to the board before moving forward with Mr.
Bluhm. I feel that a investigation should be done to ensure the
voter of Pa. that honesty and integrity of the parties involved
will be for the voter of pa. and not for a couple of party members.
Also I feel that the bidder back in 2006 that bid for the casino
license should be contacted to see if they want to continue with
Mr. Barden Casino or start all over and use the building that Mr.
Barden started into a new hotel, that could be used for the sport
center and casino guest.
Thank You
Pa. Voter

Dear Gaming Boardmembers:
As a Pennsylvanian who was opposed to legalized gambling from
the beginning, I need to tell you that my dismay about slot
machines in the Commonwealth has only grown and deepened since
the midnight gaming bill was passed.
The process of licensing and building casinos in our state is
hasty and ill-informed. It's a rush for money that will help
out-of-state casino owners while providing homeowners like me a
paltry amount of potential property tax relief.
Pennsylvanians did not ask for gaming, and we did not approve
it in a state-wide referendum. The Gaming Board needs to play
fair with Pennsylvania citizens. Please:
1. Postpone the deadline for public comment until at least
December 2006. Give us a chance to be heard.
2. Postpone the licensing of casinos until June 2007. Give
yourselves a chance to make the least-damaging decisions
possible.
3. Release ALL the non-confidential application documents that
casino license applicants submitted to you in December. We
have a right to full information.
Sincerely,
Paige H. Forster
