According to their 2006-07 annual report, Boulevard Casino
was the third most profitable gaming venue in B.C., bringing
in more than $158 million for the year (up $28.9 million over
the previous year)[1]. The increase is attributed to the new
show theatre, where the casino sees up to 5,000 guests on show
nights. The funding agreement with the province means the
casino must give 10% of its net take to the city of Coquitlam.
In 2006-07 Coquitlam received $9.1 million, which the city put
into a community group fund and into major capital projects,
such as the new FieldTurf facility at Dr. Charles Best
Secondary School and the new Chimo Aquatic and Fitness
Centre.
