Tribe seeking another casino

The Seneca-Cayuga Tribe of Oklahoma and its development partner are seeking to open a large-scale, lakeside casino and convention center near a small gaming operation the tribe already operates in northeastern Oklahoma.

Paul Spicer, the chief of the Seneca-Cayugas, made a presentation to the city council of Grove, Okla., last week about the proposed project consisting of a $60 million casino, 125-room hotel, 1,600-seat convention center and three restaurants.

But Tim Lattimore, Auburn's mayor, says the tribe has not abandoned its interest in siting an even bigger $400 million casino and resort in Auburn.
