There shall be three distinct classifications of slot machine licenses, designated by category, each permitting a licensed racing entity or person to apply for a qualifying license category and, upon issuance by the board in its discretion, to place and operate slot machines at a licensed facility. Except for conditional Category 1 license applications pursuant to section 1315 (relating to conditional Category 1 licenses), it is mandatory that the board shall consider, approve, condition or deny the approval of all initial applications for each and every category of slot machine licenses collectively and together, in a comprehensive Statewide manner, within 12 months following the time set by the board at which all applications are to be filed and deemed complete by the board. The board shall approve, condition or deny the issuance of a slot machine license of any category within the time period provided for herein. Following approval of an application for a slot machine license, the applicant shall provide formal notification to the board as soon as: (1) it fulfills all required conditions for issuance of the license; and (2) the board's decision approving the application is a final, binding, nonappealable determination which is not subject to a pending legal challenge. Upon receipt of such formal notification and upon conducting any necessary verification, the board shall issue a slot machine license to the applicant. Cross References.
