A 7401 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to video lottery gaming located in Orange county

This bill establishes rules for a new video lottery gaming facility in Orange County. It requires 30% of the facility's revenue (after prizes) to fund horsemen's purses at Yonkers Racetrack (adjusted for inflation) and 1.25% to support breeding funds for Sullivan County racetracks. The facility must also enter binding agreements with Sullivan County and Yonkers Racetrack to address potential impacts on their revenue and employment. Additionally, the bill mandates that commercial gaming facilities in Zone Two maintain staffing levels at 90% of 2023 Q1 employment to prevent mass layoffs. These provisions directly affect Orange County operators, Sullivan County racetracks, and Yonkers Racetrack stakeholders.
