Article 2 - Thoroughbred Racing and Breeding
246 - Approval of Plans of Corporation.

§ 246. Approval of plans of corporation. The commission shall not
grant to a corporation hereafter formed pursuant to this chapter, a
license to conduct a running or steeplechase race meeting within the
state until such corporation shall have submitted to the commission a
statement of the location of its proposed grounds and racetrack,
together with a plan of such racetrack, and plans of all buildings,
seating stands and other structures, in such form as the commission may
prescribe, and such plans shall have been approved by the commission.
The commission at the expense of the applicant may order such
engineering examination thereof as the commission may deem necessary.
Alterations of buildings, seating stands or other structures, and the
erection of new or additional buildings, seating stands or other
structures on the grounds of any corporation heretofore or hereafter
formed pursuant to this chapter may be made only with the approval of
the commission and after examination and inspection of the plans thereof
and the issuance of a permit therefor by such commission. The approval
of the certificate of incorporation of such corporation shall not be
deemed to vest in it the right to a license to conduct running or
steeplechase race meetings at such race course or racetrack unless such
grounds, track, buildings, seating stands and other structures are
completed in accordance with the plans approved by the commission.
