A once-livelyNevadavacation resort and casino complex has turned into America's latest ghost town after shuttering its final hotel.
Primm Valley Resorts, the last standing casino among a trio of gambling halls near the California-Nevada border, informed its employees it is closing in less than two months, according to a termination of lease agreement letter obtained by8 News Now.
The notice, sent out on Monday by Primadonna Company LLC, informed workers who reside at the nearby Desert Oasis Apartments that they must vacate their rentals by July 6, as Primm Valley Resorts will officially close its doors on July 4.
The Primadonna Company LLC, which is owned by Affinity Gaming, told staff their leases would be terminated and that they are providing a 60 day notice as opposed to 30 days 'as a courtesy,' the letter read.
'We recognize this is an extraordinarily difficult time, and we are deeply grateful for the dedication each of you has brought to the Primm Valley Casino Resorts property, Chantelle Mark, the chief people officer for Affinity Gaming, wrote.
Employees affected by the impending closure will also not have to make any further rent payments, a notice of business closure and employment termination letter obtained by the Daily Mail read.
The company also offered employment support, stating that it would plan a transition for them alongside the State of Nevada Rapid Response Team to start planning government assistance for laid-off workers, the documents read.
It is unclear how many employees are set to be laid off.
