Michelle Burke, manager of Mortimer’s Roadhouse and Grill, was at the meeting and said she was “thrilled” by the vote.
“I’m happy our customers will no longer be going somewhere else to play,” she said.
Mortimer’s has received approval of its application for a state license and now can have up to five machines on its premises.
Burke said there already are machines at Boone County establishments in Belvidere, Capron and Garden Prairie.
John Patch of Allied Gaming said villages Poplar Grove’s size that have machines are averaging $1,300 to $1,700 a month in revenue. They get 5 percent of the revenue from each game.
