Senecas plan casino in the Catskills
January 7, 2009

MONTICELLO, NY - The Seneca Nation of Indians has partnered with Rotate Black Gaming Inc., a Michigan-based development and management group, in a project to build a gaming resort in the Catskills. The proposed site is 63 acres in the Town of Thompson just off Route 17.

In a report to the federal Securities and Exchange Commission, Rotate Black Gaming Inc said the project would include a "hotel, enclosed pool environment, multiple restaurants, banquet facilities, food court and spa.

The proposed project will need state and federal approval before construction can begin. The U.S. Department of Interior made it harder last year to approve Indian casinos beyond commuting distance of reservations.

Thompson Supervisor Tony Cellini is also skeptical of the plan. He said the casino site has not been approved by state lawmakers and nobody has approached him about it. "If they think they're coming into my town to plop down a casino and walk out without talking to anybody, well, they've got a second thought coming," Cellini said.
