Another racino planned for Ohio

A new "racino" is being planned for the Miami Valley.  The owners of the Lebanon Raceway plan to install a new horse racing track with video lottery terminals. Their application to build the 175-million-dollar facility calls for 25-hundred video lottery terminals.  The track's owners say the project would create one-thousand construction jobs and 700 permanent jobs.  A racino opened in June at Scioto Downs in southern Franklin County.
