Necochea councillors propose ordinance change amid casino tender uncertainty
A Necochea councillor has proposed changing a municipal ordinance as local officials and unions seek a way forward for the city’s provincial casino after its latest tender failed. Councillor Evangelina Almada said a second tender is expected under the same conditions, while a proposed ordinance change would separate the gaming room from the casino complex; she cited an estimated USD5m for machines, plus two or three times that amount for restoration.
The proposed separation could alter the investment conditions for a future tender to operate Necochea’s provincial gaming room.
