First the Cowlitz Tribe said they were not building a gaming facility, now they say they are, why the change in plans?
The property was first acquired because of its proximity to I-5, which made it just generally a good location for general development. At the time of the acquisition, the Tribe had not yet been acknowledged by the federal government. Since that time, several changes have occurred which made it possible to propose a tribal resort on this site. The Tribe gained federal recognition, and the state gaming compact between the governor and Washington state tribes to allow video lottery terminals (slots) on tribal trust lands.
