HB 1223 (2024)

Require local approval for new gaming location

Summary:

Clarifies the role of governing body members for municipal budget committees. The bill states, "Governing body members and school board ex officio members shall serve in an advisory capacity only. They shall not vote on any matter before the [budget] committee and their presence at any meeting shall not count towards the quorum requirement."

The House rewrote the bill. The new bill requires local approval for any new gaming operator (like a casino).

A conference committee of representatives and senators could not agree on a final version of the bill.
