To bring a casino to western Maine, the casino and resort would be sited in Oxford, if voters allow it to move ahead on Election Day (said by Supporters of a proposal). It has mentioned by Olympia Gaming of Las Vegas that it is looking at several pieces of property along the Route 26 corridor in the Oxford County town. In the coming week the Company wishes to declare an exact location for it and the sites are near about 40 acres in size.

A number of landowners have come forward with their property that might be appropriate for the $150 million casino and resort. This has become a major problem in selecting a site. “People keep presenting their property to us,” she said. “And because Olympia’s been at the table for only 3 1/2 weeks, they don’t want to turn away something that might be the perfect site.”
