The Broadwater Casino cleared another hurdle today in its quest to build a business in Biloxi. The Biloxi City Council has approved a plan to rebuild the resort with a zoning change to allow the casino to be built on land, north of the highway.
The plan to rebuild the Broadwater received unanimous support from the city council, which also granted variances that had been requested for height and parking. The owners of the 260 acre resort had requested to build to a height of 400 feet and to provide approximately 1.8 parking spaces per lodging unit.
The Broadwater Resort and Casino, when complete will have up to 10,000 hotel rooms and condos. Its and its proposed casinos, golf course, shopping, restaurants and marina could put as much as $6.5 million in tax revenue per month into Biloxi's coffers.
