COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) – State regulators are ready to release the latest monthly revenue figures for Ohio’s four voter-approved casinos.
The Ohio Casino Control Commission was scheduled to share the August revenue numbers on Monday afternoon.
In July, the casinos in Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus and Toledo totaled nearly $68 million in revenue. That was down 5.6 percent from last July. But each of the four casinos saw revenue increases compared with their June totals.
The voter-approved casinos have drawn nearly $478 million so far this year. The state collects about one-third of those revenues in taxes and distributes the money to counties, along with school districts, host cities and others.
