Agua Caliente to break ground on
Agua Caliente Casino Cathedral City

Tribal development to boost downtown revitalization

CATHEDRAL CITY, CA – The Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians will break ground on the new Agua Caliente Casino Cathedral City on Monday Nov. 4, 2019 in Cathedral City.

"We are excited to begin construction on this large-scale investment in Cathedral City," Tribal Chairman Jeff L. Grubbe said. "This project will create jobs, revitalize an undeveloped downtown property and support Cathedral City's economic development efforts. In addition, we have the honor of working with Cathedral City to relocate and build a new fire station that will allow fire fighters to serve city residents from a brand new state-of-the-art facility and a more desirable location."

In 2017, the Tribe acquired 12.5 acres at the corner of E. Palm Canyon Drive and Date Palm Drive to complete a 13.6 acre project site for an entertainment development project in the heart of downtown Cathedral City. As part of that agreement, the Tribe contributed $5.5 million to build a new city fire station at 68950 Buddy Rogers Ave.

"This is a real game changer for Downtown Cathedral City," stated Cathedral City Mayor Mark Carnevale. "For more than a decade, the land where the casino will be built has been an eyesore to the community. Having a brand new gaming and entertainment center as a major anchor to our Downtown Arts and Entertainment District will spur more interest and development, provide quality entertainment for our residents and visitors, and generate additional revenue for city services. We have been waiting for this day to happen and we could not be more pleased. Downtown Cathedral City is now the place for quality theatrical performances, blockbuster films, concerts, outdoor festivals, and soon to be added to our collection, gaming." The Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians is expected to announce a groundbreaking celebration date soon.

"The City of Cathedral City and Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians have been working as partners for more than two years to make this project come to fruition," stated Administrative Services Director Tami Scott. "We have been able to formalize agreements that will provide improved streets and infrastructure around the property as well as enhanced public safety measures including the new fire station, public safety personnel, and other amenities that will greatly enrich the aesthetics for our downtown."
