One of many renditions of the casino that never was.
Some Council members are meeting in Taunton tonight ( Wednesday) with, guess who? Genting. We would like to think the Gaming Authority is negotiating down the horrendous $850 million dollar debt. But that might be too good to be true. You may recall we are being sued again about land in trust.. We have “preservation of the reservation(s),” whatever doublespeak that is. Genting has to do better with the propaganda. You see whichever way it goes, we lose. Taunton is their land. Whatever is built there, a slot dump or some mishmash casino generates money that goes toward the debt. All the lawyers work for Genting. And they’re not going to tell us a damned thing. They’re about getting paid. We will never see a dime.
We seem to be back to one Tribal Council meeting a month to avoid facing the Tribal members.
On a good note, the Council meets on Monday to work on the strategic plan for the Tribe. Let’s hope we get something that makes sense.
