The village of Tinley Park suspended a gaming company's license to operate machines in three businesses over payment of a push tax. In response, the company filed complaints in court in hopes the businesses can continue to operate their gaming machines.
Video gaming machines at Little Joe's Pizza in Tinley Park were closed Friday after a Cook County judge refused to stay a village suspension for nonpayment of a 1-cent push tax.
Only the judge hearing a case for Little Joe’s, a pizza restaurant, denied the measure, and the machines there were shut down Friday afternoon, the owner said.J&J’s complaint is over the village’s push tax, which was approved by the Village Board in June 2021 and went into effect April 30 of this year. The village’s ordinance imposes a 1-cent tax on players for every play of a video gaming terminal.
J&J attempted to install a receptacle for collecting the push tax at Betty’s Bistro with signs, but was rejected by the business and no players paid for the push tax for May, according to court documents. They also received a violation letter from the village in July, court documents said.
