What will neighboring towns get in return?
In Connecticut, towns that are considered to be impacted by proximity to the casino get 250 thousand dollars per year. Given that area towns will get the same influx of workers, strain on schools, strain on police, and other local services, this amount does not even approach the financial burden that the casino will impose on area towns.It is very likely that area towns will get an even worse deal than the one Middleboro is likely to get.Area towns may also get a view of a 40 story hotel looming over the countryside depending on their current location.
