The latest proposal will be reviewed by the Norfolk Architectural Review Board on January 8 before final approval by the City Council.

“ I’ve been part of the conversation that they will build the entire project and what has been submitted in the past was unacceptable, suggesting a building (of) the casino and the garage and not having the hotel, spa resort included in the same proposal,' Alexander said. Norfolk Mayor Kenny Alexander stated that, despite not having seen the new plans yet, the city will only approve those aligned with the 2020 referendum and the original agreement, emphasizing that the city council expects to approve the construction as one detailed package, without the need for multiple approvals from councils. The developers are legally required to open a permanent casino resort by November 2025, five years after Norfolk voters approved the initiative.

The Norfolk City Council is set to review newly presented plans for the HeadWaters Resort & Casino, a project to be developed by the Pamunkey Indian Tribe and Tennessee billionaire Jon Yarbrough.
