BACKGROUND Section 12012.85 of the Government Code provides that funding deposited into the Indian Gaming Special Distribution Fund are available for specified purposes, including grants for the support of local government agencies impacted by tribal gaming. Funding is deposited into each county's County Tribal Casino Account by a defined formula. The State Controller, acting in consultation with the California Gaming Control Commission, then divides the County Tribal Casino Account into Individual Tribal Casino Accounts for each tribe that operates a casino within the county based. The amount is based on the percentage that each individual tribe paid in the prior fiscal year to the Indian Gaming Special Distribution Fund. Each county in which Indian gaming is conducted has created an Indian Gaming Local Community Benefit Committee. This committee reviews grant applications submitted by local government and makes recommendations for grant awards based on the following priorities: law enforcement, fire services, emergency medical services, environmental impacts, water supplies, waste disposal, behavioral, health, planning and adjacent land uses, public health, roads, recreation and youth programs, and child care programs. Grant awards selected by each county's Indian Gaming Local Community Benefit Committee are administered by the county. In FY 2005/06, the City of San Bernardino, on behalf of the Police Department, was the recipient of an Indian Gaming Local Community Benefit grant in the amount of $700,000 from the Indian Gaming Special Distribution Fund.
