We've
begun one of two of the most important legal battles in Sonoma County history, battles that will
determine the future of the region. On June 6, 2008, STC101 and a number of private citizens
filed a lawsuit in the federal court to stop the Rohnert Park casino site form being taken into trust for the Federated Indians
of Graton Rancheria. (Under federal law, land must be in trust before a tribe can operate a casino.). Our lawsuit
has stopped the land from being into trust until the issue plays out in the courts - a process that could take years.
A second lawsuit is planned to challenge the casino's Environmental Impact Study upon its release, a process
that will take years to resolve in the courts. A successful challenge to this Study will prevent the federal
government from approving the management contract between the FIGR and their money-men, Station Casinos, Inc. of Las Vegas.
No contract would mean that Station Casinos cannot do business with the FIGR to build and manage a casino.
Whether or not we'll become a gambling destination or keep all that we love about Sonoma County
is going to play out in the courtroom. And you can be a Player! Youcan
stop the mammoth casino planned by the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria and their Las Vegas partner, Station Casinos.
Don't give till it hurts, but please give as much as you can. Every little bit helps!
