This amendment revises the grounds for denying new simulcasting permit applications to include local welfare concerns, existing permit adequacy, and an option for jurisdictions to prohibit simulcasting entirely, while making technical adjustments to numbering and appeal provisions.
- Adds new subsection (vi) establishing three grounds for denying applications for new simulcasting permits: adverse impact on welfare of residents in the vicinity, adequacy of existing permits to meet local needs, or failure to meet desires of county, town or city residents. If a jurisdiction invokes the third ground, it prohibits all new simulcasting permits unless the jurisdiction later rescinds the prohibition by resolution. (Page 7, after line 22)
- Renumbers existing subsection (vi) regarding written findings and conclusions for denials to subsection (vii). (Page 8, line 1)
- Renumbers existing subsection (vii) regarding revocation and denial of renewal for good cause to subsection (viii). (Page 8, line 4)
- Removes lines 6 through 8 on page 9, which contained certain restrictions or requirements. (Page 9, lines 6-8)
- Modifies the language regarding appeals by new applicants to include 'of approval' in addition to 'denial'. (Page 9, line 10)
- Adds a period after 'filed' to correct punctuation. (Page 9, line 17)
- Deletes lines 18 through 23 on page 9, which removed certain provisions related to appeals or other procedural requirements. (Page 9, lines 18-23)
