From the Grand Rapids Press:
WAYLAND TOWNSHIP — Local and state officials today are seeing their first big revenue-sharing payout from the opening of the Gun Lake Casino.
Casino officials today were to announce a payment of $515,871 for local governments and $2.1 million for the state from February and March, the first two months of operation.
“Many years ago, we made a commitment to our neighbors to provide funds to help build a better community,” Gun Lake Tribe Chairman D.K. Sprague said. “Today, we have followed through on our commitment, and that marks another important milestone in our shared progress.”
