§3A-207.
Each organization licensee shall collect a tax of ten percent (10%) of
the amount received by the organization licensee for tickets for
admission to the race meeting grounds. If an organization licensee
offers a reduced price for admission to the race meeting grounds based
upon the purchase of a season ticket or pass, the amount of tax
collected by the licensee for admission to the race meeting grounds as
a result of the purchase of such ticket or pass by any person shall be
equal to the amount of tax that would have been collected by the
licensee for admission to the race meeting grounds if such person did
not hold a season ticket or pass. On the first business day after the
close of the racing day on which the tax was collected, the
organization licensee shall remit to the Oklahoma Tax Commission the
proceeds from the tax. The proceeds of the tax shall be distributed as
follows:
1. For the first two (2) years of operation, forty-five percent (45%)
shall be apportioned monthly to the municipality in which the
racetrack is located. Fifty percent (50%) shall be apportioned monthly
to the county in which the racetrack is located. Five percent (5%)
shall be apportioned monthly to the General Revenue Fund of the State
Treasury.
2. For the third and all following years, fifty percent (50%) shall be
apportioned monthly to the municipality in which the racetrack is
located and fifty percent (50%) shall be apportioned monthly to the
county in which the racetrack is located.
If the racetrack is not located in a municipality or is located in a
municipality with a population of less than one thousand (1,000), one
hundred percent (100%) of the proceeds shall be distributed to the
county in which the racetrack is located.
