Argentine court keeps Escobar bingo development zoning order suspended
A judge rejected Escobar municipality’s request to lift an injunction suspending a zoning ordinance for a proposed bingo, hotel and shopping complex in Ingeniero Maschwitz. The ruling said the ordinance’s land-use changes require environmental assessments and public participation, and keeps the suspension in place until the main case brought by residents is resolved.
The ruling prevents the proposed gaming venue from proceeding under the suspended zoning ordinance while the residents’ case continues.
