Wynn files documents for Philadelphia casino

PHILADELPHIA - April 1, 2010

Wynn Resorts gave the documents to the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board on Wednesday. Neither the board nor Wynn officials released details of the filing.

At a public hearing next week the board will hear a report from its Office of Enforcement Counsel on the Wynn submission.

In February, Wynn offered to take over the embattled project from a group of local investors and the Connecticut Indian tribe that owns the Foxwoods Casino there.

The project won one of two licenses set aside for Philadelphia in 2006, but has since encountered significant neighborhood opposition and financial troubles.
