ROSSFORD, Ohio - Rossford officials are trying to lay the groundwork for cooperation with developers in anticipation of the passage of a Constitutional amendment that would allow the construction of a casino on land within Toledo but adjacent to the Wood County municipality.
The developer Penn National Gaming is eyeing the site, off Ohio 65, on the southern bank of the Maumee River that is now owned by a private developer. The land has been part of the Libbey-Owens-Ford, now Pilkington Glass , manufacturing plant.
At Monday's City Council meeting, Mayor Bill Verbosky said he has had conversations with the developers about cooperation on the project. "Our conversations have always been of a positive nature," Verbosky said. If the issue should pass "we want to make sure we have a good neighbor in Penn National."
