Red Rock Resorts Inc. has cleared a major hurdle in its plan to bring a new gambling-friendly development to the city of North Las Vegas. The North Vegas Planning Commission last week approved the firm’s plan for a 600-room venue with a 75,700 sq ft casino to be built on a 67-acre plot of land situated on the north side of the Clark County community.

Rebecca Miltenberger is a spokesperson for Station Casinos. She told the North Las Vegas Planning Commission that the operator is planning to build the envisioned property in two phases for the creation of some 1,100 temporary construction jobs. The finished venue is expected to host a cinema, multiple restaurants and banqueting facilities. It is also expected that it will provide full-time employment for around 840 people.

Red Rock Resorts Incorporated is undergoing a corporate shake-up. It is closing down its locals-focused Texas Station, Wild Wild West Gambling Hall, Fiesta Rancho and Fiesta Henderson enterprises and proceeding with work to bring the $750 million Station Casino Durango enterprise to a 71-acre plot of land in southwest Las Vegas.

Station Casinos has rethought its post-coronavirus policies and closed some of its casinos. This has angered some former employees. The Culinary Workers Union filed a lawsuit against Station Casino in March.

Jeffrey Welch is the Chief Legal Officer for Red Rock Resorts Incorporated. He is responsible for the 796-room Redrock Casino Resort and Spa property. Welch claims that the law does not allow his company to hire people from permanently-shuttered venues.
