Fairfax casino could now be built anywhere after Tysons requirement removed

The Brief

  • A proposed Fairfax County casino bill has been amended to remove the requirement that it be built near a Tysons Metro station, allowing it to be located anywhere in the county.
  • The change broadens Senate Bill 756, which would authorize a casino with a hotel, restaurants, and retail space, marking the fourth consecutive year the issue has been considered.
  • County leaders and the No Fairfax Casino Coalition remain strongly opposed, as the bill now heads to the full Virginia Senate before moving to the House.

FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. There’s a major twist tonight in the proposal to bring a gaming casino to Fairfax County. State lawmakers have taken away a provision requiring the casino to be built specifically in Tysons, and now it’s set to head to the Senate floor.
