Our department committed to providing useful resources for the economic development of our community.

Many Indian communities see the Gila River Indian Community economic development efforts as a model for Indian Country. The Community is already beginning to have an impact in the Phoenix metropolitan area and Pinal County with its new Whirlwind golf courses (home of the PGA's Buy.com Golf tournament, and managed by Troon Golf), the opening of a 500-room Sheraton at Wild Horse Pass Resort (managed by Sheraton Resorts), which includes the Adjii Spa and equestrian center, and the newly constructed 400-acre Wild Horse Pass Business Park, in its new 2,400-acre development known as the "Wild Horse Pass."

The Community offers three casinos with over 1400 slots available today, and with additional slots to be added in the near future as well as Las Vegas style Blackjack. The Community offers many locations throughout the reservation that includes prime locations adjacent to Phoenix, Chandler, Gilbert, Coolidge, and Casa Grande for your development needs. With its "one-stop shop" for developmental services, the Community has to offer one of the quickest development approval processes in the state.
