California AB2536 regulates the authorization and location of satellite wagering facilities for horse racing.

California AB2536 amends Section 19605 of the Business and Professions Code to set rules for satellite wagering facilities. It prohibits new facilities from being located within 20 miles of existing ones or tracks where live racing occurs, except under specific conditions. The Department of Food and Agriculture can approve up to three joint satellite wagering facilities at a racetrack inclosure, subject to certain conditions. The bill also allows racing associations or fairs to contract for the operation and management of satellite wagering facilities.
