Wynn Resorts is tapping the brakes on its plan to develop the land across the street from its Encore Boston Harbor casino in Everett to include an entertainment venue, restaurants and parking garage, a Gaming Commission official said Wednesday morning.

Joe Delaney, the Gaming Commission’s chief of community affairs, said he was prepared Wednesday to brief the commission on the plan that was set to include a 1,800-seat entertainment venue, about 20,000 square feet of restaurant space and a garage with about 2,200 spaces. But he said he heard from casino officials in the last week that they have “decided to pause the permitting process for this development so that they can do some reevaluation on whether the development as proposed is the best use for the site.”
