BILL NUMBER:A7578A              REVISED 7/1/14

TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend the racing, pari-mutuel wagering and
breeding law, in relation to simulcast theaters

PURPOSE:  Provides that a franchised corporation operating a simulcast
theater in a region wholly contained within one county shall only be
permitted to operate in the territory of such regional corporation.

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section one amends subdivision 2 of section
1009 of the racing pari-mutuel wagering, and breeding law, as amended
by chapter 18 of the laws of 2006 providing that on and after August
30, 2014, a franchised corporation operating a simulcast theater in a
region wholly contained in one county is only permitted to operate a
simulcast theater in the regional corporation's territory. All
revenues derived by such simulcast theater shall be distributed.

Section two sets an immediate effective date.

JUSTIFICATION: Nassau County Off-Track Betting, being a county OTB
with NYRA facilities is in a unique position to be unfairly impacted
by competition at the track. This bill changes that by helping offset
the impact to Nassau County taxpayers.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: New Bill

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None to the State.

EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect immediately.
