State, County, and Local Official Invited to Comment on Kenosha Casino

May 12, 2026 Posted by Citizens Against Expanded Gambling Uncategorized

In March of 2026, the Bureau of Indian Affairs formally invited state and local officials to submit written comments on this project under Section 20 of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. That invitation remains open and urgent.

State, county, and local officials, including the Governor of Wisconsin, Kenosha County, City of Kenosha, Town of Somers, Village of Pleasant Prairie, and all neighboring communities, should weigh in immediately and request a full Environmental Impact Statement to ensure Wisconsin citizens aren’t left with the bad development at taxpayers’ expense.

Send written comments to: Thomas Wilkins, Realty Specialist Bureau of Indian Affairs Midwest Regional Office 5600 American Boulevard West, Suite 500 Bloomington, MN 55437

Phone: (612) 725-4584

City takes stance against Ho-Chunk trust plan

Jun 21, 2011

"The City of Baraboo agreed to support Sauk County's opposition to the Ho-Chunk Nation taking land near their casino into tax-exempt status Monday evening, with the proviso that the interested parties should work on a mutually agreeable compromise. Controversy has been sparked among local government bodies after the Nation applied to the federal Bureau of Indian affairs to have 600 acres of land along Highway 12 and North Reedsburg Road given trust status. Schauf has estimated trust status for the properties would result in a loss of about $700,000 in taxes for the county, Baraboo School District, town of Delton and other governments."
