The Winnebago Tribe would be able to open a commercial casino under zoning change approved by the city council in Sioux City, Iowa.
Ho-Chunk Inc., the tribe's economic development corporation, wants to develop a land-based casino in the city.

The facility would be regulated by the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission. Get the Story:
