Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Smoke Free Illinois Act to include in the list of areas where smoking is allowed, designated segregated ventilated smoking rooms in gaming facilities that are licensed, provided that the segregated smoking room is only accessible to persons who have requested in writing to have access to the smoking room and the smoke from the room shall not infiltrate into any other areas where smoking is prohibited. Imposes conditions on any rulemaking authority.

 Balanced Budget Note (Office of Management and Budget)
 This legislation does not appear to have a significant implementation cost as existing facilities would incur any costs associated with establishing designated smoking areas. Any costs connected with this legislation cannot be determined at this time.

 Fiscal Note (Dept. of Public Health)
 HB 171 would not have fiscal impact on the Department of Public Health.

 Fiscal Note (Illinois Gaming Board)
 Existing casinos all have designated, segregated, ventilated smoking areas just outside the casino and therefore HB 171 will have minimal or no fiscal impact.

 State Debt Impact Note (Government Forecasting & Accountability)
 HB 171 would not change the amount of authorization for any type of State-issued or State-supported bond, and, therefore, would not affect the level of State indebtedness.

 Fiscal Note (Illinois Racing Board)
 HB 171 has no fiscal impact in relation to the operation and/or appropriation of the Illinois Racing Board. Furthermore, enactment of HB 171 will likely result in a negligible increase in wagering handle and state pari-mutuel taxes.

 Fiscal Note (Illinois Gaming Board)
 HB 171 could have a positive impact on revenues. The amount is unknown.

 Fiscal Note (Illinois Gaming Board)
 HB 171 will have no fiscal impact in relation to the operation and/or appropriation of the Illinois Racing Board. The Illinois horse racing industry has experiences significant attendance and wagering handle declines over the past several years. Enactment of HB 171 will minimally, mitigate the recurrent decreases in patron attendance, wagering handle and State pari-mutuel taxes and potentially generate overall industry and State revenue increases.

 Fiscal Note (Government Forecasting & Accountability)
 HB 171 would have no fiscal impact on the Commission of Government Forecasting and Accountability.

 State Mandates Fiscal Note (Dept. of Commerce & Economic Opportunity)
 HB 171 does not create a State mandate.

 Home Rule Note (Dept. of Commerce & Economic Opportunity)
 HB 171 does not pre-empt home rule authority.
