Minnesota Public Radio reports another player is making a move in the stadium game. A flyer says the band wants to build a casino in the Twin Cities metro and split the take 50-50 with the state of Minnesota. The White Earth tribe appeared in December before a Senate hearing to pitch a casino plan.
Leaders of the White Earth Band of Ojibwe say they are Minnesota's largest - and poorest - tribe. Thursday they'll roll out a plan for a Twin Cities casino and propose splitting the profits with the state. The idea may attract those looking for a way to fund a new Vikings stadium without raising taxes. But expansion of gambling has plenty of opponents.
White Earth says it would split revenue 50-50 with the state and calls the plan "the only solution that is fair to all Minnesotans." Meanwhile, sports facilities chief Ted Mondale says a new plan to build a stadium behind the Dome in downtown Minneapolis could come within days.
Minnesota Public Radio is reporting representatives from the White Earth tribe will testify at the Senate committee hearing and will pitch a new casino in the Twin Cities to help fund a Vikings stadium.
The House leader on stadium legislation says the idea of funding a Vikings stadium with a new Twin Cities casino is "not in play right now." A spokeswoman for Mark Dayton says the governor does not support it as a way to pay for a stadium, saying a casino would likely be tied up in court for years and is not a reliable source of money.
According to the Star Tribune, the White Earth tribe is expected to introduce plans to build a casino in the metro-area that could help fund a Vikings stadium. The tribe claims the casino will raise enough money to pay for the public portion of a stadium, without raising new taxes.
Gov. Mark Dayton, House Speaker Kurt Zellers and Vikings Vice President Lester Bagley were on WCCO Sunday morning to weigh in on the future of the Vikings stadium proposal. All three agree the stadium bill has a 50 percent chance of passing both chambers of the legislature before lawmakers plan to adjourn next Monday.
The newest plan to build a home for the Minnesota Vikings comes in just under $1 billion. The Vikings will pay about half of that amount. The rest will come from Minneapolis and the state. Governor Mark Dayton says 'not a single tax dollar from the state's general fund' will go for the project. (Rendering from the Metropolitan Sports Facilities Commission.)
