Crown Limited’s A$570 million redevelopment of its Burswood resort in Australia has been given the green light by federal and state environmental authorities, clearing the way for the massive project to begin as early as April.
The federal Environment Department said the work could proceed without a full assessment as it would not involve “matters of national environmental significance”.
The state of Western Australia’s Environmental Protection Authority cleared the site for development late last year, saying any issues could be handled within the area’s existing planning framework.
Plans call for a 25-story, six-star hotel, VIP gaming rooms, luxury retail and convention and meeting facilities. The casino will contain 130 table games and 500 slot machines, pending approval from gaming authorities.
