‘An Act To Temporarily Reduce the Annual High-stakes Beano Fee from $50,000 to $25,000’

Amend the bill by striking out all of section 1 and inserting the following:

‘Sec. 1. 17 MRSA §314-A, sub-§4, as amended by PL 2011, c. 410, §2, is further amended to read:

4. Term of license; fees. A license issued under this section is valid for a period of one year. The annual license fee for a high-stakes beano license is $50,000, except that the annual license fee due in 2008 to 2013 2016 is $25,000.

SUMMARY

This amendment strikes the provision in the bill that reduces the annual fee for high-stakes beano from $50,000 to $12,500. Existing law states that the annual fee was to be set at $25,000 from 2008 to 2013. The amendment provides that the fee be set at $25,000 through 2016. The amendment retains the provision of the bill that makes the change retroactive to apply to the 2014 fee.
