California Tribes Consider Alternative Site18 August 2003CALIFORNIA – As reported by the Associated Press: " After meeting stiff community resistance to their new casino and hotel plans, a tribe is considering alternative sites near Rohnert Park, according to city officials. "The Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria had as their first choice a plot near environmentally sensitive wetlands on the shores of San Pablo Bay in Sonoma County. "Now the tribe of Coast Miwoks and Pomos and their partner, Station Casinos from Las Vegas, is looking for other places in which to build the proposed 200-room hotel and a casino with 19-hundred slot machines. "…The tribe is expected to announce whether they will continue their plans to built the casino and resort as early as next week." |
