The Las Vegas Sands Corporation has been successful in placing casinos around the United States. they are currently pursuing building one in Wyandotte County in Kansas.

The company brought a list of 5,000 signatures to the Unified Government of Wyandotte County/Kansas City, Kansas, on Wednesday morning. The list held the signatures of residents that were in favor of the company securing the casino bid for the county.

Wyandotte is one of the counties that has the rights to a casino from the Kansas Expanded Lottery Act of last year. Six proposals have been submitted and remain for the county.

The Sands had two proposals in for the casino, but has been waiting for the local endorsement that was required. It was originally decided that the local endorsements had to be delivered by December 31st. That changed, however, when state lottery officials decided the endorsements just had to be in before May 27th.

That date is when the proposals will have to go before the Gaming Facility Review Board. There is still a challenge going on in the state Supreme Court regarding the casino expansion.

No decision has come down on that challenge as of yet. Two new proposals have been submitted by the sands Corporation for review.
