The Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria will be expanding their casino just two years after its debut in the Bay Area of California. The tribe will break ground on a hotel at the Graton Resort and Casino this fall, The North Bay Business Journal reported. Specifics -- including cost and number of rooms -- are still being discussed pending financing of the project. "What I can tell you is we are excited about it, the community is excited," Chairman Greg Sarris told the paper. "I can tell you it’s going to be the nicest thing Northern California has seen." The $825 million casino opened in November 2013. It is the closest Class III facility to San Francisco, about 50 miles to the south.Get the Story:
