They propose using Necochea casino funds for the streets

The money the casino leaves in Necochea will have a visible destination on the asphalt. The municipality in southeastern Buenos Aires confirmed it will channel the resources it receives from the provincial establishment's activity into a road works programme, with a focus on paving and repairing streets in different parts of the city.

The decision rests on the regime that distributes what the casinos of Buenos Aires province collect among the communes where they operate, a scheme that ensures local governments a portion of income tied to the halls' activity. In the Necochea case, those funds will go to finance urban infrastructure tasks the administration places among its priorities, in a context in which municipalities seek to sustain road maintenance without overloading the pressure on their own accounts.

With this announcement, the local administration directly links gambling activity with a daily demand of residents, presenting the casino's revenue as a concrete source to respond to the state of the streets and advance works that, otherwise, would compete for space in an always-tight budget.
