JOHNSTOWN - The Fulton County Board of Supervisors recently supported a casino development project proposed in Montgomery County.

Montgomery County, which recently passed a resolution supporting location of a commercial casino in that county, asked Fulton County on March 5 to do the same.

The Fulton County resolution passed last week at the County Office Building said the proposed casino location in Montgomery County is "superior to others that have been proposed in the Capital Region."

"The siting of a multi-recreational casino gaming resort in Montgomery County will result in new jobs and provide a boost to area tax bases within the region."
