Congressional Action May Clear Way for Kansas Casino10 October 2002KANSAS CITY, Kansas –As reported by the Associated Press: "A measure introduced in Congress Wednesday by Rep. Dennis Moore would enable the Wyandotte Tribe of Oklahoma to build a casino near the new Kansas Speedway in return for ending a lawsuit claiming rights to nearly 2,000 acres of industrial land. "…The year-old lawsuit citing an old treaty has clouded titles and stymied legal transactions for an estimated 1,300 landowners in the Fairfax Industrial District of Kansas City, Kan. "….Since Congress is expected to adjourn within a week, Moore's bill would have to be attached to other legislation to have a chance for passage this year. If not approved before adjournment, it would have to be re-introduced next year." |
