FOXBOROUGH – Foxborough selectmen Tuesday night registered their opposition to a casino across from Gillette Stadium.
The non-binding, 3-2 vote followed an emotional meeting attended by hundreds of town residents. Many expressed opposition to the proposal by Las Vegas casino operator Steve Wynn and New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft. But proponents said the plan should be put before voters in a townwide referendum.
Earlier Tuesday, Kraft circulated a letter urging that the casino plan be heard by all residents before a final decision is made.
Selectman Mark Sullivan, who voted with casino opponents, said he personally visited with representatives of the Kraft Group and urged them to withdraw the plan because of the divisiveness it was causing.
Kraft and Wynn have said the development would create thousands of jobs.
