Lake Ozark approves agreement for Osage Nation casino development
Lake Ozark’s Board of Aldermen approved an agreement allowing the Osage Nation to develop a hotel-casino complex in Missouri. The proposed project includes a 40,000-square-foot gaming floor and a 150-room hotel; the tribe’s investment has risen from $60 million to $100 million. Federal trust-land and state approvals remain outstanding, according to city administrator Harrison Fry.
The project’s progress and pending approvals matter to suppliers and investors considering a proposed Missouri casino.
