Shakopee, Mdewankaton Sioux joust over tribe’s land buys
Shakopee, Minnesota (AP)
City leaders in this fast-growing suburb of Minneapolis are concerned about more than $100 million in land purchases by the casino-enriched Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community, which is returning much of the land that once belonged to its ancestors to its natural state. Shakopee city leaders said they’re concerned the tribe is strategically buying parcels of land in order to block areas where the city had been planning to expand. |
