4 GRAND OPENING DELAYED

5 vs The community of Jamul has proven we are STRONG and will NOT give up until (1) Justice prevails (2) Our roads are safe!

6 o Since collisions o 22 people killed o Lowest Caltrans safety rating possible an F o 50 collisions since 2014 THIS IS WITHOUT A GAMING INSTITUTE OFFERING ALCOHOL 24/7

7 Pastor Gary Musser Jamul Community Church

8 The ABC gave interim approval BEFORE the public hearing with over 1000 protests and in spite of JIV and Caltrans failure to mitigate safety issues Sycuan and Barona were open for many years before they received a license to serve liquor. Why the exception for JIV on a road rated an F for safety? WE MUST DEMAND ANSWERS FORM OUR GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS!

9 What you can do? 1000s of community members signed petitions opposing approval Monday, 9/12 was our deadline to request a hearing JAC will notify community as events unfold. Where possible and needed, please show up in numbers! Please stay involved and let your voice be heard DO NOT GIVE UP!!!!

14 Court Case Purpose JAC vs. Caltrans & SDGE STOP Illegal Use of Encroachments JAC Defeated Motion to Dismiss on statute of limitations TRIAL set for October 21, 2016 Caltrans Granted Illegal Categorical Exemption to SDGE 2 ND LAWSUIT STATE COURT Sacramento

15 this litigation concerns Caltrans approval of two encroachment permits for SDG&E to perform work within Caltrans right-of-way along SR 94. The work will consist of installing an underground conduit containing a 12-kilovolt distribution circuit. [JAC] contends that approval of the permits was not exempt, and also that Caltrans impermissibly segmented its review of the entire action in order to provide better access to the casino. The court rejects Caltrans argument that the statute of limitations is triggered by the filing of the Notice of Exemption. As [JAC] alleges, San Diego County is large, and the unincorporated portion thereof includes over 2 million acres. Without at least some indication of where within these 2 million acres the project is located, the court finds that [the] posting did not give JAC enough information to trigger the 35-day statute of limitations. The court thus overrules Caltrans and SDG&E s demurrers. Judge Christopher Krueger August 19, 2016 Sacramento Superior Court

16 Court Case Purpose JAC vs. Caltrans SR 94 Imp. STOP Illegal Use of Encroachments Caltrans Illegally Segmented SR 94 Imp. Project Caltrans Exempted Parts of the Project w/out CEQA review Seeks Mitigation of Intersections on SR 94 to Otay Lakes Road 3 RD LAWSUIT STATE COURT Sacramento

Nextdoor Sep 2, 2016 As the Rev. Jesse Jackson recently proclaimed when bodies at Burr Oak cemetery outside Chicago were dug up and dumped in a trash heap to resell the grave sites, there s a special place in hell for grave robbers.

19 Court Case JAC/JCC vs. BIA and NIGC Purpose STOP Illegal Gambling JAC seeks rehearing on injunction at 9 th Circuit 9 th Circuit Found NEPA conflicted w/igra District Court has NOT Decided the Merits District Court Held JIV Indispensable Party JAC has appealed because JIV not indispensable and allowed to participate in action 5th LAWSUIT FEDERAL COURT APPEAL

25 Littlefield v. Dept. of Interior U.S.D.C. Mass.
