A California Indian tribe received permission last week to construct a
$100-million Nevada-style casino outside Sacramento, where it is
expected to draw gamblers who now head for Reno.
The U.S. Department of the Interior took trust to 49 acres near
Roseville, northeast of Sacramento, on behalf of the United Auburn
Indian Community.
Local opposition was muted after the tribe reached agreements with
Placer County and surrounding communities that were praised by federal
and county officials.
