Foxwoods, MA, Looking at Fall River Casino

What do you think about a casino being in Fall River, MA?

Written by Mary MacDonald 

The Boston Globe is reporting that Foxwoods Massachusetts is investigating an application for a resort casino in Fall River, one month after losing a referendum to place a casino in Milford.

The report, published Monday, indicates the resort casino developer would not have to pay another application fee for the Southeaster Massachusetts resort casino license. The Milford location was for Greater Boston, a different region under the Massachusetts Gaming Commission process.

On Nov. 19, voters in Milford overwhelmingly rejected the casino application.
