Grand Forks leaders to consider tribal-owned casino and resort
The Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa is taking steps towards building a casino in Grand Forks, a topic that has surfaced intermittently over the past 20 years. The tribe has acquired a 146-acre site southwest of the city, intending to launch an economic development project that includes a resort and entertainment complex. This Monday, at a City Hall meeting, committee members will discuss a proposed letter of intent that outlines the tribe’s plans and seeks city support for necessary approvals.
Why does this matter in Minot? If approved, it would be a new trend in tourist attraction and community development — one that expands the idea of where tribal casinos can set-up. Get the full story from Korri Wenzel with the Grand Forks Herald.
