The state Gaming Commission will hear Tuesday from nine cities and towns whose petitions for surrounding community status have yet to be accepted by the three casino operators vying for two gaming licenses.
Mohegan Sun, which wants to build at Suffolk Downs in Revere, hasn't come to an agreement with Everett, Lynn, Melrose or Somerville, but has accepted petitions by Cambridge, Malden, Medford and Saugus, according to documents released yesterday by the commission.
Wynn Resorts, which wants to build in Everett, has taken no action on petitions by Cambridge, Lynn, Melrose or Saugus, but has accepted ones by Chelsea and Somerville.
MGM, the sole applicant for the Western Massachusetts resort casino license, meanwhile, wants to build in downtown Springfield, but has reached no agreement with Hampden, Longmeadow or Northampton, although it has accepted West Springfield's designation as a surrounding community.
A surrounding community is entitled to negotiate with the casino operator for compensation for traffic and other potential impacts.
"Where there may be a disagreement, the commission will decide" next month, said Elaine Driscoll, a commission spokeswoman.
Communities that are not designated still may apply for compensation for unanticipated impacts in the future out of a mitigation fund that each of the casinos will contribute to and that the state will administer, Driscoll said.
