| 810 KAR 3:020 | This amendment allows a written request for a waiver of licensing requirements for racing participants and new language details the information required when requesting a waiver. The KHRGC may then grant or deny the request based on at least the current licenses issued to the waiver applicant and the best interests and integrity of horse racing, pari-mutuel wagering and sports wagering. It also adds language referencing a request for waiver as an option when referencing an application for license, changes the earliest date to submit a license application from November 1 to October 1, and removes the 3-day cap for special events licenses. |
