The Navajo Nation has announced plans to break ground on a $180 million casino resort just east of Flagstaff Arizona this fall.
Bob Winter, chief executive officer of the Navajo Nation Gaming Enterprise, said that financing for the project should be finalized in the “coming days” with completion estimated for the fall of 2011.
Winter’s described plans for the resort to include a golf course and shops selling native arts and crafts, “This would not be a “Las-Vegas-style” casino”, and he added “We’re looking to make it a place where people can stay and be comfortable and do many things other than gamble.”
“It’s going to be environmentally friendly and as green as it can be,” he said with a sewage treatment plant and its own water and utilities.
The tribe has conducted a feasibility study to estimate traffic exposure for the property and determined that the casino would increase tourist traffic headed to the Grand Canyon or to other nearby points of interest, from fewer than 100 vehicles per day to 4,400 vehicles per day.
“We are telling them that it would be their responsibility to upgrade the interchange” at Interstate 40, said Rod Wigman, spokesman for the Arizona Department of Transportation.
