"The project includes the construction of 24 single-family residences, a tribal administration building, parking garage and a 45-acre biological preserve area on a 160-acre property located within and adjacent to the city boundary in Solano County, near the intersection of Interstate 80 and Highway 37. The casino facility, at a cost of $700 million, would be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week."
"The property off of Columbus Parkway is the planned location of the new Scotts Valley Casino in Vallejo. (Chris Riley/Times-Herald) The Scotts Valley tribe claims that studies conducted for the Bureau of Indian Affairs found that project would employ thousands of existing Vallejo and Solano County residents and provide a massive boost to the local economy. The tribe is now working to secure federal gaming authorization and the current construction does not include the casino phase."
Scotts Valley Band of Pomo Indians began sitework and initial tribal government offices on trust land at 200 Columbus Parkway in Vallejo. The tribe plans a 400,000-square-foot casino at the site with an estimated $700 million cost and operations proposed 24/7. The project covers 160 acres and includes 24 single-family residences, a tribal administration building, a parking garage and a 45-acre biological preserve near Interstate 80 and Highway 37. Laborers began staking the site Thursday. The tribe cites Bureau of Indian Affairs studies projecting thousands of local jobs and a substantial boost to the Vallejo and Solano County economy. The tribe is pursuing federal gaming authorization; current construction excludes the casino phase.
