Gov. Scott Walker (R) is taking all the time he can get to announce a decision on the Menominee Nation off-reservation casino.

Walker commissioned an economic study of the proposed $810 million casino in Kenosha. He said he won't agree to the project if it takes away from other tribal gaming facilities.

We don't want a big budget hole but we want to find a way to add more jobs in the state," Walker told WTMJ.

Walker has until February 2015 to make a decision.
