Casinos no panacea for state budget ills in Kansas
Kansas faces a slow economy and a $61 million shortfall as the state Supreme Court upholds a new gaming law. Officials anticipate up to $80.5 million in casino related fees next year, with further revenue from ongoing track and temporary casino operations possible. Revenue would fund infrastructure, debt reduction and property tax relief, while lawmakers remain wary of overestimating gaming proceeds.
