Wyandotte Nation seeks second casino in Kansas


The Wyandotte Nation of Oklahoma is trying to open a second casino in Kansas, KSN reports.

The tribe wants to use 10 acres in Park City for gaming. According to KSN, the land is already in trust.

'This will be a well thought out plan," tribal lobbyist Doug Spangler told KSN.

The tribe asked the Bureau of Indian Affairs in April 2006 to approve a casino at the site. The request is still pending in Washington, D.C.

The tribe already operates a casino in downtown Kansas City. Although the site is trust land, the National Indian Gaming Commission claimed it couldn't be used for gaming. The courts eventually sided with the tribe after years of litigation.
