PARK CITY, Kan. — After years of legal battles, construction has begun on a tribal casino near Wichita.
The Wyandotte Nation of Oklahoma opened a small casino in a trailer on Wednesday in Park City, on land where it plans to build a larger casino. For now, the tribe can offer only gaming devices like electronic Bingo games. The state has asked a federal court to set aside a decision that allows the Wyandotte Nation to operate a casino in Park City.
The state’s lawsuit continues a decades-long dispute over the tribe’s legal authority to build a casino on the land.
