Since January 2017, Belleville has received more than $4.3 million in non-tax gaming revenue.
On Friday, The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation known as OLG issued a first-quarter non-tax gaming revenue payment of $794,381 to the City of Belleville for hosting Shorelines Casino Belleville.
These payments are made under an equitable formula in the Municipality Contribution Agreement that determines the funds municipalities receive for hosting a gaming facility and are based on a graduated scale of gaming revenue that is consistent across all sites in Ontario.
The first-quarter was April to June of 2018.
At more than $2 billion annually, OLG provides the Ontario government with its largest source of non-tax revenue
