Suburbs eye share of riverboat gambling revenues
South Suburban Mayors and Managers Association communities may share in casino revenues if a riverboat docks in Rosemont or Calumet City. The plan would allocate 80 percent of revenues over the first $3 million to be distributed among 41 SSMMA communities with a complex formula based on population and per capita income. Other details include individual municipal contracts, potential licensing by the Legislature, and mixed opinions from local leaders about relying on gambling money.
