Township Leaders to Discuss Fruitport Casino Plan

The township board plans to discuss a proposed Indian casino on the site of the old Great Lakes Downs horse racing track at tonight's meeting.

On July 16, the Little River Band of Ottawa Indians announced its proposal to build a gaming facility at the track. The tribe purchased the property from Magna Entertainment, which last held races at Great Lakes Downs last November.

The board meeting is at 7 p.m. tonight at the Fruitport Township Hall, 6543 Airline Hwy. If more people show up than the township hall can hold, the alternate site is at Fruitport Middle School, 3113 Pontaluna Rd.
