Richmond Virginia Police Department issued the following announcement on Aug. 13
Following Council’s recent approval of the resort casino Host Community Agreement, the City of Richmond is launching an engagement effort asking residents how they would like the city to spend the upfront $25.5 million that will be paid to the city by ONE Casino + Resort (RVA Entertainment Holdings, LLC) if Richmond voters approve the casino gaming referendum on November 2nd. In addition, by no later than January 2023, ONE Casino + Resort will pay the city an additional $1 million upon closing on the financing for the resort casino project.
The engagement period will span from August 13th to September 6th and will include a digital survey, targeted print surveys, and public meetings.
The survey asks residents to rank projects based on priority and offers an open-ended opportunity to provide feedback.
