N.Y. Racing, Pari-Mutuel Wagering and Breeding Law § 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.
