Osoyoos Want Slot Machines

The Town of Osoyoos is joining forces with the Osoyoos Indian Band to bring in a slot machine gambling facility. The two groups are hoping that by showing that they are united in their quest to get a slot machine casino that they will gain permission to do so. The community is looking to build a slot machine casino in the south end of the valley, and is putting together a list of guidelines that they feel must be followed before approval.

With this set of guidelines for the slot machine casino, the groups feel that they will be able to approve whatever the B.C. Lottery Corporation tells them. They felt it was time to join forces and to work together to come up with an amicable agreement ever since the tribe announced they were planning on building a slot machine casino. The voters had overwhelmingly already approved 100 more slot machines at the Rocky Mountain Turf Club.

The BCLC has not yet approved the slot machine casino’s application, and the community thinks that there is not really a very good chance that they will approve both the Rocky Mountain and the Osoyoos tribe’s slot machine applications. The BCLC suggested that instead of competing they join forces, and they have. Once they approve the slot machine rules and regulations, a consultant will be hired to pick the best spot for the slot machine casino.

The two groups are convinced that with their mutual consent for the location and the rules of the slot machine casino that the BCLC will have no problem endorsing their town for the slot machine license. It is not guaranteed that they will get the slot machine casino, but they feel that they stand a pretty good chance at one.
