Rock Island bar owners want to kick video gambling fees to the curb.
 
Monday night at the City Council meeting several bar owners asked the city to lower or get rid of the fee in general.


This comes after the city was already scheduled to vote on lowering the fee from $250 per machine to $125.

Bar owners say the annual fee is too much when the city already takes 5% of their profit.
 
The City Council tabled the vote tonight; aldermen say they want more information before voting.
