Narragansett Tribe, partner to present casino plan


The Narragansett Tribe and Harrah's Entertainment will make a public presentation on their casino proposal tomorrow night.

The tribe and Harrah's want to build a Class III facility in West Warwick. They are seeking voter approval to change the state constitution to authorize the venture.

The tribe is not allowed to proceed under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act due to a rider placed in the law after the tribe won a court case. The tribe has since been stymied in its efforts to open a casino.
