Eric Adams vetoes council rejection of Bally’s Bronx casino zoning bid
New York City Mayor Eric Adams vetoed the City Council’s rejection of land-use changes sought for Bally’s proposed $4 billion Bronx casino, restoring the application to the licensing process. The Council had rejected the zoning application by a 29-9 vote on 14 July. The bid must still receive Community Advisory Committee approval before the New York Gaming Facility Location Board considers it.
Bally’s bid can continue through the casino licensing process, but still requires further approvals.
