In 2013, the county entered into a Settlement Agreement between New York state, Oneida County, and the Oneida Indian Nation. Madison County will receive the remaining 62.5% of the monies. Now 37.5% of the total $3.75 million will be shared among the city and all of the towns and villages. Of the remaining 75%, 37.5% was shared with the city, towns and villages with the exception of town of Sullivan and the 62.5% went to Madison County. The town shared 25% of 25% of with the village of Chittenango. Previously, the town of Sullivan received 25 percent, $2,250,000, of the $3.75 million. Madison County Chairman John Becker was the only supervisor to vote against the resolution. The resolution passed 1,212 in favor to 288 opposed.

The resolution was introduced on the floor by City of Oneida Supervisor Joseph Magliocca. The new distribution will take effect in 2024 after the state budget goes through in April. The OIN provides the money because the town of Sullivan hosts the Yellow Brick Road Casino in the village of Chittenango and Point Place Casino in the hamlet of Bridgeport. Kathy Hochul must put the money into the state budget to make it available.

Madison County Public Information Officer Samantha Field said the resolution allows the county to redistribute the allocation of the $3.75 million host community benefit funds, which are not guaranteed every year. The Madison County Board of Supervisors recently voted on a resolution to redistribute the host community benefits that the county receives from the Oneida Indian Nation through New York state.
