((mauricio marin)) most resorts say with the cost of pi enhancements will come as well. but it's also likely another way of increasing revenue. dave schwartz with unlv's center for gaming research says it'll be intersting to see if other areas of revenue could take a hit from paid parking. ((dave schwartz/unlv gaming research: it's very hard to say how much it will, you know it will definitely show a dollar increase in the bottom line, you know would that money have gone somewhere else? and would might people be discouraged because of the charge?. it's hard to say. )) ((mauricio marin)) when it comes to locals---we checked around. m-g-m will keep it's free parking for those with nevada don't have a certa
