Boston sued the Massachusetts state gambling regulator to block a planned Wynn Resorts Ltd. casino near the city, arguing residents should get to vote on the $1.6 billion project because they will bear the brunt of the environmental impact and traffic congestion.
The Gaming Commission should nullify the casino license it awarded to the city of Everett, which is adjacent to Boston, and name Boston as the development’s formal host, according to a complaint filed today in state court.
