Bills seek to bar casinos from urban renewal in Iowa
Iowa lawmakers introduced Senate Study Bill 1159 and House Study Bill 208 to prohibit urban renewal plans from including gaming projects awarded a state license this year. Cedar Rapids officials say the Cedar Crossing Casino project sits in an urban renewal district but developers are not seeking tax incentives, so the measure should not affect it. The bill hearing was scheduled for 11 a.m. at the Capitol.
