The Sycuan band are a Kumeyaay tribe, one of the four ethnic groups indigenous to San Diego County. Reservation and administrationThe Sycuan Reservation is located at {{coord|32|46|57|N|116|49|59|W|scale:50000_source:GNIS|display=inline}}. The nearest outside communities are the unincorporated communities of Harbison Canyon and Crest. Cody Martinez is their current tribal chairman.[4] The band operates two waste water treatment plants, a sequencing batch reactor used for their casino, administrative buildings, and maintenance buildings. They also operate and own a modular treatment plant in a flood plain near one of their residential areas. The tribe operates a water treatment facility which controls their nitrate levels. Additionally, the tribe operates a small medical clinic, dental office, fire department and tribal police force. In 2005, they eliminated their environmental department for political and economic reasons. In 2004, they installed a new air conditioning system, internal control systems, and a new parking lot. Economic developmentThe move toward casino gaming on the Sycuan Band reservation was spearheaded by the Sycuan Band's former chairwoman, Anna Prieto Sandoval.[5] The Sycuan Band opened its first gambling facility, the Sycuan Bingo Palace, on their reservation in 1983.[6] As a direct evolution from that successful venture, they now run a profitable casino, as well as an off-reservation golf course. The Sycuan band is not the only San Diego-area band to operate significant commercial enterprises off-reservation. The Sycuan band purchased the downtown San Diego landmark U. S. Grant Hotel in 2003.[7] It also advertises heavily in relation to the San Diego Padres major-league baseball team (including both television and radio commercials during game broadcasts, and posted advertising at Petco Park, the team's home field). Hotel casino resort expansionA $226 million hotel casino expansion opened to the public on March 27, 2019. The casino has a total of 2800 slot machines and 80 gaming tables (blackjack, poker, etc).[8][9] Sycuan Institute on Tribal Gaming{{main|Sycuan Institute on Tribal Gaming}}The Sycuan band also provides an endowment to support the Sycuan Institute on Tribal Gaming, a research institute at San Diego State University. EducationThe Kumeyaay Community College was created by the Sycuan Band to serve the Kumeyaay-Diegueño Nation, and describes its mission as "to support cultural identity, sovereignty, and self-determination while meeting the needs of native and non-Native students."
