Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board won’t likely award the license at its meeting Wednesday. Board members are still deliberating, said spokesman Richard McGarvey. The proposals need to be looked over by the board’s newest members, Keith McCall and Tony Moscato.
   
“We have the two new board members,” McGarvey said. “Obviously, they have a lot to go through.”
   
The board planned to make a decision by early January but was gridlocked. All four members appointed by legislators and at least one of the three appointed by the governor need to agree to award a license.
   
The next meeting is April 14.

Four sites are vying for the license, which allows up to 600 slots and 50 table games — Park Inn Harrisburg West in Hampden Twp. (the Holiday Inn until January), Mason-Dixon Resort and Casino near Gettysburg, Nemacolin Woodlands Resort in Fayette County and Fernwood Hotel and Resort in the Poconos.
