Gov. Brown Nudges Elk Grove Casino Closer To Reality

ELK GROVE (CBS13) – The Wilton Rancheria Indian casino in Elk Grove is now one step closer to reality.

Wednesday, Gov. Jerry Brown announced he signed a tribal-state gaming compact between the California and Wilton Rancheria.

The tribe wants to build a $400 million casino just off Highway 99 at the south end of Elk Grove.

The core provisions in the compact are similar to those with other tribes in the area.

It still needs to be approved by the state legislature.
