The newly elected chairman of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa supports an off-reservation casino in Grand Forks, North Dakota.
Incoming chairman Ken Davis and other tribal officials say the project will create jobs and revenue. The tribe is willing to share profits with the state.
The idea will be discussed a city council meeting on Monday night. Other tribes in the state have voiced opposition because an urban casino would hurt their gaming operations.
