Q: What do you think of plans to develop the Sargent Ranch?

An Indian tribe is trying to get federal recognition and develop the property with owner Wayne Pierce. If the plan works, development could come without

government approval.

A: “I don’t have a problem with that. Their people have to live somewhere. And as long as it’s done within the law, it’s OK because everyone else is trying to develop land too.”

A: “I don’t think I am really for it because I think it’s going to impact our area too much and provide a lot of problems we really don’t need.”

A: “Well, that is just fine for me. What’s not fine is that it might just be a footing for a casino. And as long as it complies with all the requirements, Indians or not, people can develop places.”

A: “People need to open up to change and be more flexible.”

A: “You know, I haven’t paid any attention to that issue.”
