Major US casino operating company Boyd Gaming has the go-ahead to develop and manage a new tribal casino resort on behalf of the Wilton Rancheria tribe, in Elk Grove, California.

A tribal gaming compact between the tribe and the California state assembly and the senate was ratified this week.
The land is 15 miles to the south-west of Sacramento and work on the project will begin in the middle of next year with completion due 18 months later.
