Ohio city wants to see new Eastern Shawnee deal


The city council in Monroe, Ohio, wants to revisit its casino agreement with the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma.

The city entered into a deal with the tribe in 2005. But the tribe changed casino sites and asked for an amendment to the agreement.

Council members, however, voted down a resolution to amend the agreement. Instead, they want to see a new deal in order to address site-specific issues.

The tribe filed a land claim in Ohio in hopes of settling for gaming rights.
