Gambling has resulted in economic and social costs to individuals and families, as well as for communities in many areas. Such costs include traffic congestion, demand for more public infrastructure or services (roads, schools, police, fire protection, etc.), environmental effects, displacement of local residents, increased crime, and pathological gambling. The reason for Rincón’s success in tourism has been the natural resources the town has to offer and, mainly, Surfing. If we allow the mega hotel and casino to be built, we would potentially lose the visitors that have been coming to Rincón for over 50 years, as they come to experience the essence of our small town, not looking for resorts and casinos.
