Oneidas Face Taxed Prospects and Local Contributions
The Oneida Nation outlines potential state taxes on legalized gaming, estimating 6 to 20 percent of gross revenues with about $18 million annual tax if current rules applied. They own 3,200 acres in Madison and Oneida counties with roughly $55,000 yearly property tax potential. State gasoline taxes could rise by about $1 million annually, while cigarette and merchandise taxes are not estimable. The nation reports 1,967 jobs at seven enterprises and $20.8 million in state and local tax payments in 1904, noting indirect job creation of 2,016 elsewhere in New York. Turning Stone Casino drew nearly 300,000 more visitors to Exit 33 on the New York Thruway in 1994, spurring 10,000 extra motel nights. The Oneidas contributed $416,000 for a Verona town master plan and town hall, pledged $7 million for sewer and water extensions, and supported Verona Volunteer Fire Department, Rome’s World Series of Bocce in 1995, the Grimes Fund, Canastota Hall of Fame, the FBI Cross Foundation in 1992, and the Susan Komen Breast Cancer Foundation in 1996.
