18-Oct-05. Coucillors shy away from casino dispute. Red Deer Advocate, B1.

Several Red Deer city councillors are standing behind a decision made two years ago that council not take a position on casinos. Parkvale Community Association does not agree with the stance taken by council and is attempting to stop the proposed $1.5-million expansion of the Jackpot Casino. They feel that it will create noise, traffic, litter and parking problems in their historic community.
