Thursday, October 25, 2007, DETROIT – The Detroit Casino Council and MGM Grand Casino yesterday reached a tentative agreement on a new contract.

"They were clear on the membership’s objectives, and they were able to achieve them in these negotiations. It’s a great agreement that will benefit workers, the casino and the community.”
Details of the agreement will be provided to members of the DCC for their approval. Voting will be conducted Monday, Oct. 29.
