Wyandotte Nation eyes another Kansas casino

Thursday, March 20, 2008  

The Wyandotte Nation of Oklahoma is weighing another casino in Kansas.

The tribe operates a Class II facility in downtown Kansas City. The site has been the subject of a lengthy legal battle but the tribe has come out on top so far.

Now there's another site in Park City that could be used for a casino. The tribe submitted a land-into-trust application for 11 acres with the hopes that the parcel will be used for gaming.

Second Chief Billy Friend said there are no firm plans for a casino in Park City. Both the Park City and Kansas City sites were purchased with land claim settlement funds.
