• Station, Caesars, MGM Properties Approved for 100 Percent Casino Capacity Station, Caesars, MGM properties approved for 100 percent casino capacity By Bailey Schulz Las Vegas Review-Journal May 12, 2021 - 7:23 am Three of the largest casino operators in Las Vegas can now run their casinos at full capacity. MGM Resorts International, Caesars Entertainment Inc. and Station Casinos are the latest companies to have gaming floor capacity and social distancing restrictions waived by the Nevada Gaming Control Board. The Wednesday announcements mean an additional 24 casinos across the valley to can now operate at full capacity, effective immediately. Industry watchers say the shift is a watershed moment in Las Vegas’ road to recovery. “The more properties that come back to full capacity really signal an end to much of the pandemic for us,” Amanda Belarmino, an assistant professor at UNLV’s college of hospitality, said. “First of all, it will allow people to go back to work. Second, it will speed our economic recovery as a city and a state that will help all of the members of our community. … It is heartwarming to see our world come back.” Return to normalcy A Wednesday statement from MGM Resorts said the gaming floors at Bellagio, Aria, MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, Park MGM, The Mirage, New York-New York, Luxor and Excalibur can operate at 100 percent of fire code capacity. The casinos had been operating under occupancy restrictions since their reopenings last year. Clark County’s 80 percent occupancy restrictions and 3-feet social distancing policies remain in place outside of the casinos, in areas such as the properties’ restaurants, pools and other nongaming venues.

(NASDAQ: CZR) [email protected] 1630 S. Commerce St. Caesars has a significant presence in Las Vegas with a 63% EBITDA Las Vegas, NV 89141 exposure. Labor contracts for most Las Vegas casino resorts, including all but one of the Caesars properties, expire at the end of May. Last week, 25,000 union members voted to authorize a strike by a 99% margin. Main outstanding issues in CZR negotiations include technology, housekeeping workload study, union security in case of change of ownership, and wages and benefits. The difference between the two sides’ economic proposals is approximately $7.4 million in the first year and $8.9 million in the fifth year. A one-month strike could reduce CZR’s EBITDAR by nearly $120 million. Negotiations are scheduled for May 29 and May 30 Labor contracts for most Las Vegas casino resorts expire at the end of May. Collective bargaining agreements between UNITE HERE’s Culinary Local 226 and Bartenders Local 165 (“the Union”) and most of the casino resorts on the Las Vegas Strip and Downtown Las Vegas are set to expire at the end of this month. All Caesars properties except the Rio have contracts expiring at the end of the month. (See the end of this note for a list of properties at risk.) Caesars has a significant presence in Las Vegas with a 63% EBITDA exposure. Negotiations for a new 5-year deal covering all CZR properties’ approximately 12,000 workers started in March, but major differences remain between the unions and the company. [Show full text]

• About Wynn Resorts About Wynn Resorts About Wynn Resorts Stephen A. Wynn, the founder of Wynn Resorts, Limited, is the preeminent designer, developer and operator of Integrated Resorts globally. Wynn Resorts owns and operates two Integrated Resorts in Las Vegas, Nevada and three in the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (“Macau”). The Wynn development team envisions, designs, and builds boldly conceived Integrated Resorts that set progressively higher standards for quality, guest service and entertainment and that transformed their markets from “gaming-only” locales to diversified global tourist destinations. Wynn Integrated Resorts seamlessly integrate sophisticated architecture, luxurious interior design, and a diverse selection of amenities, including fine-dining restaurants, premium-retail offerings, a full range of 24-hour games, convention facilities, and live-performance venues. The result: unique experiences for guests of the highest quality. Guided by the simple truth that, “Only people can make people happy,” Wynn employees are devoted to delivering the Wynn promise of always exceeding guest expectations. For 40 years, resorts led by the Wynn development team have been the employer of choice in their markets. An Unparalleled Record of Market Transformation As Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Mirage Resorts, Incorporated, Mr. Wynn opened The Mirage, Las Vegas’ first true Integrated Resort, in 1989. The Mirage, at that time the most expensive casino in the history of Las Vegas, was an instant success, breaking all Las Vegas records for profitability and for the first time generated more non-gaming revenue than gaming revenue for a Las Vegas resort. The Mirage not only established the concept of an Integrated Resort but also broadened the global appeal of Las Vegas, triggering an immediate $12 billion city-wide investment boom that made Las Vegas the number one tourist destination in the world.

A’s Las Vegas ballpark: New details, construction schedule revealed

With the design of their Las Vegas ballpark sitting at about 50 percent complete, the Athletics and their stadium project team presented their plan to prospective contractors.

Several hundred people packed the Brasilia Ballroom at the Rio Hotel on Thursday as new details of the stadium design and work schedule were laid out to the people who will potentially construct the planned $1.5 billion facility.

“We’re going to need help from these subcontractors here to make this all happen,” A’s President Dave Kaval said. “We’re talking about thousands of jobs, just for the construction. This is a great way to showcase that.”

Representatives from the A’s stadium construction team of the joint venture, Mortenson-McCarthy , designer Bjarke Ingels Group and stadium architect HNTB were on hand to provide information on the ballpark and initial steps of the construction hiring process.

Stadium details

The 33,000-fan-capacity domed stadium will feature six primary levels, with 30,000 fixed seats and an area for 3,000 standing-room-only ticket holders. The levels are broken down starting from the ground up including: service and field, lower suite, upper suite, upper concourse and upper deck.

About 30 percent of fans attending games and events at the A’s ballpark will enter at the lower suite level. The armadillo-shaped exterior structure, with five crisscrossing pennants on the roof, was done with baseball and the Las Vegas heat in mind. The ballpark’s roof will span around 700 feet, featuring a metal finish with translucent plastic panels.

“So one of the most iconic images in baseball is the pennant, it’s synonymous with success in baseball,” said Frankie Sharp, senior architect for Bjarke Ingels Group. “You’ll be able to see out of the giant cable net glass wall toward the Las Vegas Strip … and you’ll be protected from the elements year round and create just a really spectacular experience for everyone.”

From field level to the roof the maximum height is slated to be 290 feet.

That glass wall will span 36,000 square feet and allow natural light and views of the Strip while keeping the stadium an enclosed, climate-controlled facility. Inside the ballpark, the design team is aiming to have an open concourse feel.

Drop the Trop

Before construction can begin on the Tropicana site, the skeletons of the two hotel towers need to be imploded.

Dubbed “Drop the Trop,” the implosion is scheduled for 2:30 a.m. on Oct. 9, but ahead of the demolition, the A’s and Tropicana owner Bally’s Corp. will host an event with fireworks and a drone show planned.

“It’s going to be a milestone, in both a farewell to the Tropicana and what it meant for Las Vegas and Southern Nevada and the Strip and also to look forward to our incredible ballpark that we’re going to be building on the Strip,” Kaval said. “It’s going to be a really fun night and a great way to showcase the project and build the momentum for the future opening in 2028.”

After the towers are brought down, crews will begin to clear the site for the A’s to begin construction of the ballpark. That is scheduled to start in the second quarter of next year, with completion slated for 2028.

“That’s the current schedule that we are on pace for,” Kaval said.

Stadium authority

The A’s have three outstanding agreements with the Las Vegas Stadium Authority that are being negotiated and set to be presented in nearly final forms at a planned Oct. 17 meeting. Those agreements include nonrelocation, lease and development agreements.

“Everything is going to be presented there, but the votes are not going to occur until the December meeting,” Kaval said. “We’re on track for those and we’re really happy with the progress we’ve made and ensuring that it’s done in an appropriate fashion and working hand-in-hand with the stadium authority.”

Workforce diversity

The procurement schedule began last month and will last through February 2026. The early proposal packages are mainly for exterior and interior base construction, with later applications tied to the field, seating, clubhouse and other finishing touches of the ballpark.

Senate Bill 1, the public funding law that earmarks up to $380 million in public funding for the ballpark, also laid out strict workforce and community benefits requirements.

The project must include 51 percent of workers who are women, minority, veteran and disabled, with 15 percent of the work being awarded to small local businesses.

Ross Edwards, senior vice president of McCarthy Building Companies, said just like they did with the construction of Allegiant Stadium, they will have no problem meeting and even exceeding those required thresholds.

“With the Raiders we smashed the target at Allegiant Stadium,” Edwards said. “We intend to do that again. It takes a lot of work on the front end to make sure you’re procuring things the right way, but the expectations are laid out properly. That’s what we tried to do here today, is make sure everyone is aware.”

Three crucial Oakland Athletics’ ballpark agreements with the Las Vegas Stadium Authority are nearing finalization and expected to be presented next month.

A Carson City District Court judge threw out a Nevada teacher’s union lawsuit against various entities challenging Senate Bill 1, the public funding mechanism for the Oakland Athletic’s planned Las Vegas ballpark.

Aviators season-ticket members who place a priority deposit in 2025 will receive priority seating selection at the Athletics’ Las Vegas Strip ballpark.

The Tropicana’s hotel towers are set to be imploded as part of a celebratory event that will include a drone and fireworks show, according to Bally’s Corp.

In a revised draft lease agreement presented by the Las Vegas Stadium Authority, the A’s would have an initial lease of 30 years.

The Las Vegas Stadium Authority board meeting will see an updated draft of the Oakland Athletics’ lease agreement for their planned $1.5 billion Southern Nevada ballpark.

The A’s plan to sell their 50 percent interest in the Coliseum for $125 million to the African American Sports and Entertainment Group (AASEG), the two groups jointly announced Monday.

Tropicana owner Bally’s Corp. says the demolition of the Rat Pack-era resort is moving ahead as planned.

Gaming Leisure Properties Inc. gave an update on plans to build a new ballpark for the Oakland Athletics and a new hotel-casino on the Las Vegas Strip.

Bally’s Corp Chairman Soo Kim offers insight into whether the company’s $4.6 billion deal with a hedge fund will affect the A’s planned Las Vegas ballpark.
