Some business owners say the possibility of a casino in downtown Wichita could have them moving out. If a casino is approved, a seven-member panel will then help decide where it's put.
The CEO of Intrust Bank and the president of Cargill Meats both say they've watched the casino issue closely.
They say they want the best possible working environment for their employees, and if a downtown casino affects that, they may move their headquarters out of downtown.
"From my examination of the situation, I have yet to find anybody tell me that a casino will enhance that environment," says Charlie Chandler, Intrust's CEO.
