City of Hawaiian Gardens Reduces Budget for Years to Come as Gaming Returns
HAWAIIAN GARDENS, Calif. — Card clubs are open in Los Angeles County for outdoor gaming, which is great news for at least one city government.
The Gardens Casino used to be open 24 hours a day, seven days per week. Now they open at 9 a.m. and close at 2 a.m. every day for a deep clean.
