'Ontario Municipal Board OK's plans for Durham Live in Pickering'. The first phase of the development, the casino, was opened to the general public on July 26, 2021. The City of Pickering, the Durham Region and Toronto governing authorities are actively involved in this project due to the magnitude of investment and effects on zoning bylaws.
