The Town of Hanover has received a second quarter non-tax gaming revenue payment of $309,990 for hosting Gateway Casinos.
Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation reports that since February 2001, Hanover has received almost $20 million in non-tax gaming revenue.
“Our government is pleased that land-based casinos have reopened safely and are contributing to our provincial economy again,” said Bill Walker, Member of Provincial Parliament for Bruce-Grey-Owen Sound. “Host communities are once again benefiting from local employment and the financial proceeds that support vital services through Municipality Contribution Agreements.”
OLG makes payments to host municipalities under the Municipality Contribution Agreements, using a prescribed formula.
