Building trades workers idled after Tropicana accident By JOHN CURRAN
Now hundreds of building trades workers who had been busy on the Tropicana Casino and Resort expansion project are off the job indefinitely, with construction halted in the wake of the Oct. 30 collapse of a parking garage.
'It means we're going to have unemployment here,' said Jim Kehoe, business manager for Local 322 of the Plumbers and Pipefitters Local union. 'We're all waiting to find out when they can make the job safe again and they can go back to work.'------------------------------------------- posted 7:45 AM :: reference link ::
