Cedar Rapids casino plan gains local board support and study
The new casino proposal drew backing from a Cedar Rapids board chair and members, including Barbara Hames-Bryant and Cather Taylor III, as officials estimate a $40 million project could generate about $42 million annually with at least 3 percent to local charities. Officials expect a license review after 2017 with a feasibility study due around the same time.
