    Default Atlantic City CLOSING in 3 Weeks!

    Atlantic City officials said Monday they will close city hall and stop paying city employees in less than three weeks as state and local leaders continue to argue over how to save the Jersey Shore gambling resort town from financial ruin. With the city set to run out of money and teetering on bankruptcy, Mayor Don Guardian announced that "non-essential" local government functions will cease beginning Friday, April 8 at 4:30 p.m.
    Guardian said "essential services" like police, fire, revenue collections, and some divisions in public works will remain open.
    And he said the closure will remain in effect until at least May 2, when the city expects its next quarterly tax payments. http://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf...county_article

    They've been doing poorly for years now, but that there is too much. Seriously needs auditing for what they're actually spending money on.

    I work in Pville right outside AC and it's honestly hasn't been that great lately... I have a terrible schedule but I really wonder what this means for the clubs here.

    An interesting podcast about how Atlantic City came to be totally fucked.

    Like seriously how bad do you have to be messing up if you can't sustain a gambling haven.

    Not to thread jack, but there's a Krispy Cream drive thru by me. Am I the only one who thinks it sucks they're closing for girls who strip there? It seems like such a good location. FYI there's a Christies between a casino and race track in W V

    Crazy Horse. The old Delilah's Den. I have a lot of good memories of that place. May be stopping in there end of next week.

    That's a super weird solution, but I'm not surprised they're having major financial troubles. The casinos and the beach are awesome, but last I was there it was around $300+ for the rooms there.......which aren't very nice, even at the best hotels. It's kind of a deterrent for people to vacation there, yanno?

    You need investors and investment dollars. Not handouts. Look at detroit. That's AC's future if they don;t get some private money in there soon.
