Final bid to halt Kansas casino project argued before court
Cher okee County officials and Wichita developers Brandon and Rodney Stevens with Cherokee County commissioners filed lawsuits to stop the ToPeKA casino project. They appealed after a Shawnee County judge dismissed the suits as the Kansas Supreme Court weighs whether the state owned facility Kansas Crossing in Pittsburg should move forward. The case notes the gaming board chose Kansas Crossing over Castle Rock, with attorneys warning of hundreds of millions at stake and potential jobs for more than 200 people at Kansas Crossing set to start in March.
