Fiscal Detail and Notes
Changes to the definition of "something of value" will eliminate the need for organizations to seek a license when allowing the casual play of games of chance that do not involve gambling. The effect of these changes in future fiscal years will be fewer organizations seeking a license. As a result, license revenue to the Gambling Control Unit within the Department of Public Safety will decrease by $1,395 in fiscal year 2019-20 and by $1,860 annually beginning in fiscal year 2020-21.
