UPDATE: I had a convo with a city official yesterday and they brought up an interesting point, “Who told Royal River to keep quiet about this plan until after the Events Center vote?”
Glad to see someone is checking into these things;
According to documents obtained this week by KELOLAND News the tribe approach city leaders last year with a proposal to build a 1600 slot machine, 100,000 square foot casino in Sioux Falls. The tribe’s proposal shows the City of Sioux Falls would share nearly $9 million a year in revenue, which is the exact amount the city will pay every year for the events center.
I also got another tip in the naming rights debacle, well kinda, one of the interested parties basically cannot deny or confirm they submitted a proposal because of a disclosures. So for now, we wait.
