SB 120-FN FISCAL NOTE
AN ACT relative to applicants for secondary game operator licenses.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Racing and Charitable Gaming Commission states this bill, as amended by the Senate (Amendment #2015-0224s), will have an indeterminable impact on state revenue and expenditures in FY 2016 and each year thereafter. There is no fiscal impact on county and local revenue or expenditures.
METHODOLOGY:
The Racing and Charitable Gaming Commission states this bill allows the Commission to issue provisional licenses for a fee of $10 per license to secondary game operators. The Commission states there are 356 secondary game operators licensed in the state. The Commission has no data on how many individuals will apply for licenses in the future or how many applicants will request a provisional license to determine any increase in fee revenue or expenditures. The Commission assumes any increase in expenses will be offset by the $10 license fee.
