A lawsuit over the distribution of gaming revenues from the Little Traverse Bay Bands of
Odawa Indians will continue but the parties reached an agreement over payments for this year.
The tribe shares 2 percent of electronic gaming revenues from the Odawa Casino Resort with
local communities. The Emmet County Local Revenue Sharing Board decides how to
distribute the funds.
Three educational institutions are suing the board over the distribution formula, saying they are entitled to a larger share. The tribe is not a party in the lawsuit.
Similar concerns about casino distributions are being raised with respect to the Little River Band of Odawa Indians.
