Title
An Ordinance Revising Chapter 18 (Video Gaming), of Title 7 (Business And License), of the Orland Park Village Code and Making Other Changes Relative to Video Gaming Within the Village
History
The Village has maintained strict regulations regarding the operation of video gaming terminals, seeking to limit video gaming to existing businesses who are established within the Village as restaurants. Because of this, gaming operators looking to enter the market may seek to acquire existing businesses and orient their operation towards gaming. The current proposed ordinance seeks to limit this practice by extending the timeline to obtain a full video gaming license after a transfer or in the event of the opening of a second location of an existing license holder. In addition, it seeks to further clarify that only table service restaurants can obtain a video gaming license, and extend the timeframe during which a business must establish operations in order to qualify for video gaming.
Recommended Action/Motion:
I move to recommend adopting an Ordinance entitled: AN ORDINANCE REVISING CHAPTER 18 (VIDEO GAMING), OF TITLE 7 (BUSINESS AND LICENSE), OF THE ORLAND PARK VILLAGE CODE AND MAKING OTHER CHANGES RELATIVE TO VIDEO GAMING WITHIN THE VILLAGE.
