VIDEO GAMING-VARIOUS
Summary
Amends the Video Gaming Act. Makes changes in the definition of "video gaming terminal". Removes language restricting the operation of video gaming terminals near inter-track wagering licensees or inter-track wagering location licensees. Requires the splitting of the annual fees for video gaming terminals by a terminal operator and a licensed establishment, licensed truck stop establishment, licensed fraternal establishment, or licensed veterans establishment. Prohibits the Illinois Gaming Board from disseminating information relating to video gaming that is specific to individual licensed locations, but allows the dissemination of information that is aggregated based on municipality or county (and makes conforming changes in the Freedom of Information Act). Amends the Criminal Code of 2012. Adds exemptions related to video gaming in provisions concerning the definition of "gambling device", the seizure of gambling devices, and gambling losses that are recoverable.
