The Quapaw Tribe of Oklahoma is a month away from opening its new casino.
The $300 million Downstream
Casino Resort is located in Oklahoma, Missouri and Kansas. The gaming portion is on the Oklahoma side.
The tribe created 800 jobs for the first phase of the facility. About 100 positions remain unfilled before the July 5 opening.
According to Cherokee County, Kansas, the land for the gaming portion wasn't
taken into trust properly. The county has a lawsuit that seeks to stop
construction on the casino [Complaint
| Motion
for Preliminary Injunction].
