The General Assembly has until March to decide on a host of bills to allow and regulate casinos.
The Pamunkey Tribe is wasting no time in positioning itself. This month, they signed an agreement with the city of Norfolk to potentially buy property for a commercial casino-resort along the Elizabeth River. Then they announced plans for another tribal casino-resort in South Richmond near the James River.
