Arkansas: Quapaws Sell Land Ending Pulaski Co. Casino Speculation Max Brantley, Arkansas Times · January 17, 2019 at 4:01 pm The board of the Little Rock Port Authority is expected today to approve plans to purchase more than 150 acres near the port currently owned by the Quapaw tribe of Oklahoma, an end to five years of controversy related to the potential use of the property for a casino. The Quapaws have the inside track now on building a casino in Jefferson County under new Amendment 100. Bryan Day, director of the port, commented that the tribe no longer needed the land “since they got the amendment passed and have an option on land in Jefferson County.”
