Graton Rancheria to make $3 million payments to Cloverdale Rancheria, Kashia Band

Phil Barber September 22, 2021

The Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria confirmed Tuesday they will make contributions of $3 million each to two other local Pomo branches, Cloverdale Rancheria and the Kashia Band. The payments, part of a 2012 agreement with Sonoma County, immediately became wrapped up in the Graton tribe’s territorial dispute with the Koi Nation, which last week announced plans for a $600 million resort and casino outside of Windsor.

“This offer has been made to the Koi in the past, and the tribe has never received a penny,” a spokesman for tribal leaders told the Press Democrat in a statement. “Koi Nation is pleased they brought this idea to tribal councils through Sonoma County, and perhaps encouraged Graton to fill this promise they’ve been making for years.”
