Catch Title:
Wyoming lottery-definition.

Subject:
Wyoming lottery corporation.

Summary/Major
Elements:

Current law provides for disposition of up to six
million dollars of lottery proceeds to cities, towns and counties based on a
distribution formula comparing the net sales tax collected by vendors in the
local government to total sales tax collected.

Vendor is defined in the Wyoming lottery statutes as
vendors authorized to supply lottery goods or services.

This bill changes the definition of vendor to the
definition of vendor in the sales tax statutes, resulting in distribution to
all local governments rather than only those counties where lottery tickets are
sold.
