HOUSE MOTION ____

]

MR. SPEAKER:

    I move that House Bill 1522 be amended to read as follows:

    Delete the title and insert the following:
    A BILL FOR AN ACT to amend the Indiana Code concerning gaming and to make an appropriation.

SOURCE: Page 1, line 1; (05)MO152203.1. -->     Page 1, between the enacting clause and line 1, begin a new paragraph and insert:
SOURCE: IC 4-31-2-11.5; (05)MO152203.1. -->     "SECTION 1. IC 4-31-2-11.5 IS ADDED TO THE INDIANA CODE AS A NEW SECTION TO READ AS FOLLOWS [EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2005]: Sec. 11.5. "Pari-mutuel pull tab" has the meaning set forth in IC 4-35-2-5.
SOURCE: IC 4-31-4-2; (05)MO152203.2. -->     SECTION 2. IC 4-31-4-2 IS AMENDED TO READ AS FOLLOWS [EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2005]: Sec. 2. (a) A county fiscal body may adopt an ordinance permitting the filing of applications under IC 4-31-5 to conduct pari-mutuel wagering on horse races at racetracks in the county. However, before adopting the ordinance, the county fiscal body must:
        (1) conduct a public hearing on the proposed ordinance; and
        (2) publish notice of the public hearing in the manner prescribed by IC 5-3-1.
    (b) The county fiscal body may:
        (1) require in the ordinance adopted by the county fiscal body that before applications under IC 4-31-5 to conduct pari-mutuel wagering on horse races at racetracks in the county may be filed, the voters of the county must approve the conducting of horse racing meetings in the county under section 3 of this chapter; or
        (2) amend an ordinance already adopted by the county fiscal body

to require that before applications under IC 4-31-5 to conduct pari-mutuel wagering on horse races at racetracks in the county may be filed, the voters of the county must approve the conducting of horse racing meetings in the county under section 3 of this chapter.
An ordinance adopted under this section may not be amended to apply to a person who has already been issued a permit under IC 4-31-5 before amendment of the ordinance.
     (c) An ordinance adopted under this section authorizing a person to conduct pari-mutuel wagering on horse races at racetracks in the county may not be adopted or amended in a manner that restricts a permit holder's ability to sell pari-mutuel pull tabs under IC 4-35. An ordinance adopted by the county fiscal body permitting the sale of pari-mutuel pull tabs is not a prerequisite for the lawful sale of pari-mutuel pull tabs under IC 4-35.

SOURCE: IC 4-31-5.5-3; (05)MO152203.3. -->     SECTION 3. IC 4-31-5.5-3 IS AMENDED TO READ AS FOLLOWS [EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2005]: Sec. 3. (a) As used in this section, "live racing day" means a day on which at least eight (8) live horse races are conducted.
    (b) The commission's authority to issue satellite facility licenses is subject to the following conditions:
        (1) Except as provided in subsection (c), the commission may issue four (4) satellite facility licenses to each permit holder that:
            (A) conducts at least one hundred twenty (120) live racing days per year at the racetrack designated in the permit holder's permit; and
            (B) meets the other requirements of this chapter and the rules adopted under this chapter.
        If a permit holder that operates satellite facilities does not meet the required minimum number of live racing days, the permit holder may not operate the permit holder's satellite facilities during the following year. However, the requirement for one hundred twenty (120) live racing days does not apply if the commission determines that the permit holder is prevented from conducting live horse racing as a result of a natural disaster or other event over which the permit holder has no control. In addition, if the initial racing meeting conducted by a permit holder commences at such a time as to make it impractical to conduct one hundred twenty (120) live racing days during the permit holder's first year of operations, the commission may authorize the permit holder to conduct simulcast wagering during the first year of operations with fewer than one hundred twenty (120) live racing days.
        (2) Each proposed satellite facility must be covered by a separate application. The timing for filing an initial application for a satellite facility license shall be established by the rules of the commission.
        (3) A satellite facility must:
            (A) have full dining service available;
            (B) have multiple screens to enable each patron to view simulcast races; and
            (C) be designed to seat comfortably a minimum of four hundred (400) persons.
        (4) In determining whether a proposed satellite facility should be approved, the commission shall consider the following:
            (A) The purposes and provisions of this chapter.
            (B) The public interest.
            (C) The impact of the proposed satellite facility on live racing.
            (D) The impact of the proposed satellite facility on the local community.
            (E) The potential for job creation.
            (F) The quality of the physical facilities and the services to be provided at the proposed satellite facility.
            (G) Any other factors that the commission considers important or relevant to its decision.
        (5) The commission may not issue a license for a satellite facility to be located in a county unless IC 4-31-4 has been satisfied.
     (c) After December 31, 2004, a permit holder may not submit an initial application for a license to operate an additional satellite facility under this chapter. After December 31, 2004, the commission may not issue an initial license for a new satellite facility. A satellite facility license issued before January 1, 2005, may be renewed annually subject to the requirements of this chapter.

than eighteen (18) years of age may not wager at a horse racing meeting.
    (b) A person less than seventeen (17) eighteen (18) years of age may not enter the grandstand, clubhouse, or similar areas of a racetrack at which wagering is permitted unless accompanied by a person who is at least twenty-one (21) years of age.
    (c) A person less than eighteen (18) years of age may not enter a satellite facility.

The treasurer of state shall determine the total amount of money paid by the treasurer of state to an entity subject to this subsection during the state fiscal year 2002.

The treasurer of state shall certify the base year revenue determined under this subsection to each entity subject to this subsection.
    (i) This subsection applies to an entity receiving money under subsection (d)(3) or (d)(4). The treasurer of state shall determine the total amount of money paid by the treasurer of state to the entity described in subsection (d)(3) during state fiscal year 2002. The amount determined under this subsection multiplied by nine-tenths (0.9) is the base year revenue for the entity described in subsection (d)(3).

    (k) This subsection does not apply to an entity receiving money under subsection (c). For state fiscal years beginning after June 30,

2002, the treasurer of state shall pay that part of the riverboat admissions taxes that:
        (1) exceed a particular entity's base year revenue; and
        (2) would otherwise be due to the entity under this section;
to the property tax replacement fund instead of to the entity.
     (l) The maximum amount paid to the Indiana horse racing commission under this section in a state fiscal year ending before July 1, 2007, may not exceed the remainder of:
        (1) the Indiana horse racing commission's base year revenue as determined under subsection (h); minus
        (2) the amount of pari-mutuel pull tab wagering taxes, if any, paid to the Indiana horse racing commission under IC 4-35-8-3 in the state fiscal year.
The treasurer of state shall pay the amount of the admissions taxes equal to the amount of pari-mutuel pull tab wagering taxes subtracted from the Indiana horse racing commission's base year revenue under this subsection to the property tax replacement fund instead of to the Indiana horse racing commission. For a state fiscal year beginning after June 30, 2007, the Indiana horse racing commission is not entitled to a distribution of admissions taxes collected under this chapter. After June 30, 2007, the treasurer of state shall pay the admissions taxes specified in subsections (b)(6) and (d)(7) to the property tax replacement fund instead of to the Indiana horse racing commission.
