This would be most detrimental for our residential and business communities, the wetlands and the river. No.

I vote NO for the Casino in Richmond and I especially vote NO for the Chippenham/Powhite Bally Proposal.

I am horrified that this location is being considered. This will surely have a negative impact on the animals and plants residing in the wetlands now and it will have an equally negative impact on home values for the surrounding neighborhoods.

I'm not in support of a casino in this location. In fact, I believe the city is missing a huge opportunity if they don't find a way to turn this area into park land. City parks are enormously popular and with that are becoming more crowded. Think ahead, look at how people will judge the decisions we make now.

I live in Willow Oaks/Clevedon community. I am vehemently opposed to the casino being in our community. Not just bc it is unwanted/unneeded but bc of the commercial ecosystem that grows up all around casinos.

Richmond's current image is outdoorsy--hipster--foodie. A casino resort in a residential area sounds like the old crime-ridden Richmond.

As a nearby resident I am strongly opposed to this project and worry about the multiple negative impacts a casino would have on the environment, residents and community at large

Richmond shouldn't be considering a casino resort anywhere, but definitely not in a wetland.

This would decrease our property value, bring drunk drivers into our neighborhood and increase the already trafficked forest hill ave. Casinos belong away from neighborhoods, like out by the airport or industry areas.

This proposed casino is a disaster for the environment, the river that is fed by these wetlands that will be destroyed, and also to the traffic infrastructure that cannot handle these numbers of visitors. Leave our beautiful river neighborhood alone!
