Tohono Oodham leaders have unveiled updated renderings of the tribes proposed resort and casino in Glendale which show scaled back gaming and hotel plans.
The tribe had to adjust plans after Glendale won a legal battle, saying about one-third of the 134 acres of tribal-owned land fell within the city limits.
The tribe is appealing that decision, but got federal approval for a reservation on 54 of the acres that were within the county.
The Arizona Republic says the tribe redesigned and scaled back its project to better fit the smaller acreage approved as a reservation.
