From what I know the governor opener was set before there were any talks about them buying it. But yes still convenient.

Don’t be so sure. This has just come out because it became PUBLIC knowledge. There has been a lot of conversations between many people before it was made public. On the other hand, Gov. Dayton doesn’t seem to know which day it is most of the time or has plausible deniability most of the time so he may not have know about it.

the band has owned land on this lake for years, the lake is not in trouble just because they bought a resort.

if the owners of the resort were not going to make it work business wise, I am glad to see it bought and remain open, as it promotes jobs in the area.

about the opener, its the only resort big enough on the lake to have it there.

That’s a big swing in the price, wonder if there was additional land thrown in that wasn’t initially part of the sale?

This is yet another Mille Lacs political issue: there are a number of Minnesota Ojibwe families who trace their direct ancestry to a band with deep roots — some of the deepest — in local Ojibwe history: Sandy Lake Band. The Sandy Lake parcel — far to the north of the rest of the Mille Lacs land parcels — is presently registered to Mille Lacs, as a part of its federally-recognized tribal land. Sandy Lake Band member families are living there now, as they have for hundreds of years, and there are old burial grounds there that members have taken direct action to protect against road builders and developers. Sandy Lake Band is petitioning the BIA to allow them independent existence as a Minnesota Ojibwe tribe on the same footing as others (many of whom are more recent occupants of present reservation locations.)
So this is a move that will give the Sandy Lake Band enough financial and political clout to spit the tribal registration and become autonomous.
According to this Indian website, Mille Lacs Corporate Ventures is paying $6.9 million for the Big Sandy Resort:
