Artist's rendering of proposed First Light Resort and Casino. Image from Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe. K.G. Urban Enterprises, a non-Indian developer, is still interested in bidding on a commercial casino in southeastern Massachusetts. The company sued the state in federal court for restricting the casino process to "a federally recognized tribe." The lawsuit hasn't been resolved but the Massachusetts Gaming Commission changed the landscape by agreeing to consider commercial bids for the region where the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe is pursuing a casino. The commission has yet to accept bids for the casino in Region C. Applicants must submit a $400,000 non-refundable fee but the license may never be issued if the tribe clears all hurdles for its proposal.
