Florida governor signs bill allocating Seminole Tribe casino money towards environmental causes

The majority of the funds the state receives from its gaming compact with the Seminole Tribe must go toward environmental projects, according to legislation signed by the governor of Florida.

The majority of the compact revenue must be used to fund programs aimed at improving water quality, environmental infrastructure, and the continuous acquisition and management of conservation lands, according to a bill named Funding for Environmental Resource Management.

The tribe's six casinos are expected to bring in roughly $750 million a year for the state.
 
Community development is definitely in necessary and if they authorities are taking action to make sure that the revenue from the industry like gambling can be used for the community development they should be appreciated everyone should try to put their share in the good things happening in the community
