Leaders of the Enterprise Rancheria are vowing never to open a casino on land that will be used for a housing project.
The tribe wants to develop 63 acres in the east Oroville foothills. Residents are worried that the land will be used for gaming once it is placed in trust.
A rival group of former tribal members also oppose the project. They say they were wrongly kicked out of the tribe and are trying to regain control.
