Las Vegas Sands no longer moving forward with plan to build resort and casino at Nassau Coliseum
2ds agoThe Las Vegas Sands may have packed up and left Long Island, but the business community is hardly giving up on plans for a casino.
Long Island Association President Matt Cohen says he is "optimistic" that a third-party can be found to continue the application process for a state gaming license and hopefully bring a casino to Long Island.
Opponents of the casino continue to maintain that Nassau County should explore other options.
The deadline to apply for a state gaming license is June 27 - and a decision on those licenses is expected by the end of the year.
