Construction on the Fresno-area’s newest Indian gaming casino, along Highway 99, is expected to break ground before the end of June.
That’s according to a top executive with Red Rock Resorts, the parent company of Las Vegas based Station Casinos — which is partnering on the project with the North Fork Mono Indian tribe.
“We continue to expect to have a shovel in the ground in the second quarter of 2021 with the construction expected to take 15 to 18 months,” said Stephen Cootey, Red Rock’s chief financial officer, on a investor conference call this week.
The casino will be built on 305 acres adjacent to the highway between Avenue 17 and Avenue 18 in Madera County.
