Koi Nation plans to build a $600 million hotel and casino resort on old wine land in Sonoma County. The tribe paid $12.3 million for the former winery that is located about 10 miles from its historic lands. Tribal officials submitted plans on Wednesday to place the 68-acre plot in federal trust.

Koi Nation wants to build a $600 million casino resort in Sonoma County. It will need to negotiate a gaming agreement with California Governor Gavin Newsom and the US Department of the Interior. The approval process includes an environmental review and a public comment period. Construction will start in one to two years and it will take another two to three years until the complex is fully developed. Koi Nation expects to create more than 1,100 full-time jobs.
