The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation had made a second quarter (July 1st to September 30th) payment totaling $2,376,666 to the City of Windsor for hosting Caesars Windsor.
So far, during OLG’s fiscal year, Windsor has received $5,239,599. Since the gaming site opened in May 1994, Windsor has received $78,254,511.
These payments to host communities are based on a formula consistently applied across all gaming sites in Ontario using a graduated scale of gaming revenue at the hosted site.
“Revenue from OLG’s Municipality Contribution Agreements supports host communities so they can invest in programs and services that benefit everyone, from neighbourhood parks to local festivals,” said Peter Bethlenfalvy, Minister of Finance. “These payments help to improve the quality of life and make Ontario a vibrant and exciting place to live, work and play.”
