    The Upstate New York Gaming Economic Development Act (Chapters 174 and 175 of the Laws of 2013) outlines the procedure and process for siting destination gaming resorts in New York State. The primary provisions of the Act are included in Article 13 of New York's Racing, Pari-Mutuel Wagering and Breeding Law.


    Overview:

    • Four destination gaming resorts in Upstate New York

    • At least one facility in each of three regions:

    o Capital

    o Catskills/Hudson Valley

    o Eastern Southern Tier

    • No more than two facilities in any of the three regions

    • Tribal casinos retain their geographical exclusivity

    • No downstate gaming resorts for at least 7 years after first gaming license is awarded

    • Gaming facilities will either be entirely new resorts or conversion of existing New York racinos
