As part of the pact, Tule River will wind up funding improvements on portions of Teapot Dome Avenue in Porterville along with the intersections of Avenue 256 and Spruce Road and Highway 190 and Rockford Road. The agreement spells out a variety of environmental impacts created by the casino’s move.
The long push toward relocating Tulare County’s Eagle Mountain Casino received an added boost Tuesday when the Tulare County Board of Supervisors approved an agreement with the casino’s operating tribe, the Tule River Indian Tribe.
