Enforcement Agent, Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission

09/26/2024 2:33 PM | Anonymous member (Administrator)

The KRGC’s primary mission is to ensure that gambling at facilities with state owned casino games and pari-mutuel racetrack gambling is conducted with integrity. As a regulatory agency, our chief mission is to seek compliance. As a criminal justice agency, our charge is to enforce the law. We take these responsibilities seriously, and we require our licensees do as well.

At the present time, all pari-mutuel licenses for horse and dog racing in Kansas have lapsed and been revoked.  No pari-mutuel racing has been conducted in Kansas since August 2008.  The KRGC is currently responsible for the regulation of the Boot Hill Casino and Resort in Dodge City, the Kansas Star Casino in Mulvane, the Hollywood Casino at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City and the Kansas Crossing Casino and Hotel in Pittsburg.
