Gateway Casinos made the announcement this morning that the new gambling facility will be built at the corner of Richmond and Keil Drive.
Construction on the new “Cascades” branded complex will start in the spring following the proper approvals.
At this point it isn’t clear exactly how big the casino will be and what sort of features it will have.
While the construction of the new casino is underway in Chatham, Dresden will continue to operate.
As far as staff are concerned, in their last contract negotiations in November, Unifor Local 444 members agreed to a three-year deal with language to ensure union members moved to the new location.
