Paterson, Skelos propose development at Belmont thoroughbred track

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) -- Betting on gambling as an antidote for hard
times, Gov. David Paterson and state Senate Majority Leader Dean
Skelos are proposing further development of the century-old Belmont
thoroughbred track on Long Island.
Skelos, head of the Senate's Republicans, is calling for video
lottery terminals.
Paterson says he already has administration officials starting
to consider options.
Skelos last week joined Paterson and Assembly Democratic leaders
in endorsing a project to expand gambling at the Aqueduct
thoroughbred track in neighboring Queens.
The Delaware North Companies plans to add 4,500 video slot
machines, a hotel, spa and conference and event center at Aqueduct,
and is to pay the state a one-time fee of $370 million and share
VLT revenues.
