PA Gaming Control Board Posts Category 2, Category 3 Applications
HARRISBURG: The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board today posted applications for Category 2 and Category 3 gaming facilities, as well as instructions for filing these applications, on its Web site, www.pgcb.state.pa.us.
Act 71 of 2004 authorizes the Board to license 14 slot-machine gaming facilities across the state, including five standalone sites – known as Category 2 facilities – and two sites at existing resorts – known as Category 3 facilities. The Board previously approved regulations governing Category 2 and Category 3 facilities.
The Board also previously agreed to accept applications for the Category 2 and Category 3 operating licenses from Nov. 1, 2005, through Dec. 28, 2005. It has not set a date for acting on these applications. To download the application forms, visit the Web site and click on “Licensure” and “Applications.”
