In addition to supporting 2,100 jobs, the report said casino generated $142.5 million in direct spending, $43.2 million is indirect expenditures and $67.6 million in induced spending.
"We are proud to learn that we are doing our share to provide jobs and contribute to the county's economic growth," Chairman Bo Mazzetti said in a press release
The tribe recently won a federal court ruling that said the state of California can't demand a share of gaming revenues without providing meaningful concessions.
