Penn National Gaming, the owner of the Hollywood Casino Perryville, said Thursday that it would consider selling the Cecil County facility so it could develop a slots parlor at Laurel Park in Anne Arundel County.
Executives at the Pennsylvania-based gaming company are counting on voters in Anne Arundel to defeat the Cordish Cos.‘ plans to build a casino at Arundel Mills in next month’s referendum. They are also counting on Maryland to reopen the bidding process for the slots license there. The referendum asks voters whether a zoning bill passed by the County Council to allow the mall project should stand.
