Due to the vigilance of our membership, we discovered a County plan to divert Indian tribal money and tobacco education funds from the general fund to pay for the eminent domain actions. These funds pay for emergency services, education and roads. Once YCTA brought this document to the attention of the press, County Supervisors disclaimed any knowledge of the document. Weeks later, they abandoned this funding scheme after the County approved a 18-hole golf course for the gaming tribe and the tribe announced that they would donate $60 million or more to the county’s eminent domain proceedings.
