Tribal gaming counties include: Archuleta, La Plata, and Montezuma. The types of local governments eligible to receive assistance include: counties, municipalities (with the exception of the three gaming cities: Black Hawk, Central City and Cripple Creek) and special districts that provide emergency services.
