Depends on where, how much planning goes into it for traffic abatement, and if they have sufficient parking and security…… and isn’t too close to the casino in Pacheco on CC Bl.
I don’t care one way or the other, but if they do build a casino, I’d like to see it built where it won’t have much of an impact on traffic. Maybe somewhere in the vicinity of Port Chicago Highway, or they can bulldoze Sunvalley, and build it there. Whichever they decide, there should be plenty of armed security to keep an eye on the winners as they leave and walk
out to the parking lot. Too many thugs, and robberies lately. I don’t gamble, but if I did, I’d
rather take the short drive to Reno or Tahoe, it’s more fun.
Bulldoze SVM? I like that idea!
I know I’ll get scalped at an Injun Casino (I’ve never come out a winner yet) but who cares? WTF…. it’s only wampum!
Try Cache Creek
Gambling NO
Stock Market YES
Same thing

The short is answer is “No”.
.
Gambling is for fools and Indian casinos are the result of “White Guilt”.
No not at all. There are no federally recognized Indian lands in Concord to build a casino on. A tribe purchasing lands from a private owner would have to go through a legal battle for restoration and federal review.
Two-part determination: For land acquired after 1988, a “two-part determination” is often required.
Acquire land: A tribe can purchase land from private owners.
File for “trust” status: The tribe applies to the federal government to place the land into a trust.
Undergo federal review: The U.S. government, specifically the Secretary of the Interior, reviews the application.
Thank you for some factual information – a commodity badly needed on most discussions!
Indian casinos are not smoke free, it’s like walking into a chain smokers convention. Disgusting to say the least. I’ll stick to Nevada casinos that for the most part have handled smokers and their cig habits well. Indian casinos have limited table games that don’t function like Nevada casinos. Craps in a Indian casino is bs the way it’s played.
Concord don’t need it bad idea.
It’s reparations for the Injuns! Let the tribe make a fortune fleecing the palefaces, but nobody is forcing us to gamble… so be it.
Let all the slave reparations be paid the same way & they can open casinos too!
That’ll be fun.
I thought we weren’t supposed to call them “Indians” but rather Native Americans? I guess it’s OK when it involves a Native American business raking in millions? Maybe “Native American Casino” just doesn’t have the same ring to it…
Okay enough of this it needs to be called a “indigenous” casino. So they are slowly stealing the white man’s land back with these gambling establishments.
