Pari-Mutuel Law Repeal Suggested in Montpelier
UPI reports Montpelier legislator Peter Giuliani says repeal of the pari mutuel law is preferable to implementing an 8-10 percent betting pool tax split at Green Mountain Park in Pownal. Senate Finance weighs a House plan giving 12.5 percent to the track and 5.5 percent to the state for a 170 day season, aiming to boost purses and plant upkeep. The issue, controversial since racing began, followed last year’s modest profit of just over 220 thousand dollars. Democrats mostly oppose the new tax split this year amidst prior financial strains and calls for relief.
