The $20 million gaming license fee for the Tioga Downs Casino is being distributed. The money will go to support public schools, the six counties around the casino, and a municipality.

On Friday an announcement was made by Gov. Andrew Cuomo that schools across the state will be receiving $16 million from the casino licensing fee. $1 million will also go to both the town of Nichols and Tioga County.

Population of nearby counties will determine the amount that they will receive. $1.4 million will be given to Broome County. $706,934 will go to Tompkins County. $289,556 will be paid to Chemung County. $139,328 will go to Wayne County. Lastly $69,528 will be paid to Schuyler County.
