Leaders in the city of Surprise, Arizona, are open to hosting an off-reservation casino for a tribe.
The city doesn't have a tribe in mind but wants to reach out. One possibility could be the Tohono O'odham Nation, whose plans for an off-reservation in Glendale have come under heavy fire.
Chairman Ned Norris Jr. said other municipalities have expressed interest in a casino. The tribe for now is going through with the Glendale site, which was purchased pursuant to a land claim settlement act.
