Centre Wellington will get 4 per cent of casino sports betting at the Grand River Raceway Elements Casino, though some concern has been raised by council.
Sportsbooks have become a recent hit at various Ontario casinos which includes Grand River allowing people to bet on sports which saw two kiosk sports open on October 28th.
Councilor Barbara Lustgarten-Evoy put her focus on the health of residents with the extra option of betting.
CAO Dan Wilson says OLG does spend money on the well being of those who use its gaming systems.
Centre Wellington receives money from the casino, mostly seen in capital projects such as roads and bridges.
