Under current law
4% of net slot machine income from Oxford Casino is directed to the Penobscot
Nation and the Passamaquoddy Tribe unless they receive funds from a slot
machine facility or casino other than Oxford Casino or Hollywood Casino, in
which case Oxford Casino would retain the 4% of net slot machine income. This
amendment allows the Penobscot Nation and the Passamaquoddy Tribe to receive
the 4% regardless of whether they receive revenue from casinos other than
Oxford or Hollywood. A total of $2,316,634 was distributed to the Penobscot
Nation and the Passamaquoddy Tribe from the Oxford Casino in fiscal year
2013-14. |
