City leaders want Wis. tribe to relocate casino

WEDNESDAY, MAY 28, 2003

The Forest County Potawatomi Tribe of Wisconsin is being asked to consider relocating a casino to Milwaukee.

The move would require federal approval for an off-reservation land-into-trust acquisition. City leaders said they will support the tribe but the tribe hasn't said it wants to relocate the facility.
