. (a) It is the intent of the Legislature to establish a fair
and proportionate system to award grants from the Indian Gaming

agencies impacted by tribal gaming. It is also the intent of the
Legislature that priority for funding shall be given to local
government agencies impacted by the tribal casinos that contribute to
the Indian Gaming Special Distribution Fund.
(b) It is the intent of the Legislature that in the event that any
compact between any tribe and the state takes effect on or after the
effective date of this chapter, or that any compact between any
tribe and the state that took effect on or before May 16, 2000, is
renegotiated and reexecuted at any time after its initial effective
date, money provided to the state by a tribe pursuant to the terms of
these compacts shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the state
costs for the regulation of gaming and for problem gambling
prevention programs in the Office of Problem and Pathological
Gambling within the State Department of Public Health.
(c) It is the intent of the Legislature that if any compact
between any tribe and the state takes effect on or after the
effective date of this chapter, or if any compact between any tribe
and the state that took effect on or before May 16, 2000, is
renegotiated and reexecuted at any time after its initial effective
date, any revenue sharing provisions of that compact that requires
distributions to nongaming or noncompact tribes shall result in a
decrease in the amount that the Legislature appropriates pursuant to
this chapter.
