WEAVER,S-PHILIP. (BRUNSVOLD) New Act Creates the Illinois Gaming Act. Creates a short title only. FISCAL NOTE (Illinois Gaming Board) SB1017 has no fiscal impact. FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 3 (Illinois Racing Board) This legislation would reduce State revenues annually by $37.8 million. With the reduction of State revenues intended to be retained by the horse racing industry ($21 million for purses), it is expected to generate substantial growth in wagering handle and State revenues beyond the year 2000. HOUSING AFFORDABILITY NOTE, H-AM 3 (Housing Development Auth.) There will be no fiscal effect on the cost of constructing, purchasing, owning or selling a single family residence. PENSION NOTE, H-AM 3 (Pension Laws Commission) Would not affect accrued liabilities or annual cost of any Ill. public pension fund or retirement system. JUDICIAL NOTE, H-AM 3 (Administrative Office of Ill. Courts) No decrease or increase in number of judges needed. FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 3 (Illinois Gaming Board) Estimated increase in total taxes is $119.9 million. Of this projected increase, a net amount of $14.6 million will be transferred to local communities and the balance of $105.3 million will come to the State. BALANCED BUDGET NOTE, H-AM 3 (Bureau of the Budget) Since this bill is not a supplemental appropriation bill, the Balanced Budget Note Act is inapplicable. STATE DEBT NOTE, H-AM 3 (Economic and Fiscal Commission) SB 1017 would not affect the bonding authorization of the State, and, therefore, has no direct impact on the level of State indebtedness. CORRECTIONAL NOTE, H-AM 3 (Dept. of Corrections) This legislation would have no fiscal impact or prison popu- lation impact on the Department. FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 3 (Economic and Fiscal Commission) Overall impact to the State is estimated to be a loss of $14.0 million. While the EAF would increase by $58.6 million, a combination of GRF revenue loss along with GRF commitments would total $72.6 million. Overall impact to local governments is estimated to be $15.9 million. STATE MANDATES NOTE, H-AM 1,2,3 (Dept. of Commerce and Community Affairs) Does not create a State mandate. HOME RULE NOTE, H-AM 1,2,3 (Dept. of Commerce and Community Affairs) Does not preempt home rule authority. FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 5 (Illinois Gaming Board) No change from previous Ill. Gaming Board fiscal note. STATE DEBT NOTE, H-AM 5 (Economic and Fiscal Commission) No change from previous State Debt Note. CORRECTIONAL NOTE, H-AM 5 (Dept. of Corrections) No change from previous correctional note. STATE MANDATES NOTE, H-AM 5 (Dept. of Commerce and Community Affairs) No change from previous mandates note. HOME RULE NOTE, H-AM 5 (Dept. of Commerce and Community Affairs) No change from previous home rule note. BALANCED BUDGET NOTE, H-AM 5 (Bureau of the Budget) No change from previous balanced budget note.
