Statutes Amended In Order of Appearance

410 ILCS 82/35

Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Smoke Free Illinois Act to include in the list of areas where smoking is allowed, designated segregated ventilated smoking rooms in gaming facilities that are licensed, provided that the segregated smoking room is only accessible to persons who have requested in writing to have access to the smoking room and the smoke from the room shall not infiltrate into any other areas where smoking is prohibited. Imposes conditions on any rulemaking authority.

	State Debt Impact Note (Government Forecasting & Accountability)
	HB 6940 would not change the amount of authorization for any type of State-issued or State-supported bond, and, therefore, would not affect the level of State indebtedness.

	Home Rule Note (Dept. of Commerce & Economic Opportunity)
	HB 6940 does not pre-empt home rule authority.

	State Mandates Fiscal Note (Dept. of Commerce & Economic Opportunity)
	HB 6940 does not create a State mandate.

	Fiscal Note (Illinois Gaming Board)
	Existing casinos all have designated, segregated, ventilated smoking areas just outside the casino and therefore HB 6940 will have minimal or no fiscal impact.

	Balanced Budget Note (Office of Management and Budget)
	HB 6940 does not appear to have a significant implementation cost as existing facilities would incur any costs associated with establishing designated smoking areas. Any costs connected with this legislation cannot be determined at this time.
