The Little River Band of Ottawa Indians won support for its off-reservation casino in Muskegon, Michigan.
The Fruitport Township Board voted 4-3 on a resolution in favor of the casino at the defunct Great Lakes Downs. Residents said they welcomed the jobs the facility would create.
The tribe operates the Little River Casino on its reservation, about 80 miles from the proposed gaming site.
