The Botkins, Ohio, village council voted on Tuesday to sell 50 acres to the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma.
The tribe is seeking approval for an out-of-state casino. The tribe has already bought 150 acres in Monroe. Botkins and Monroe are located near each other and near a major interstate.
The tribe, once part of the Cherokee Nation, doesn't have a land base in Oklahoma.
