Maine LD811 requires municipal approval and a public hearing before a sports wagering facility can be established.
Maine LD811 mandates that applicants for a sports wagering facility license must first obtain approval from municipal officers or county commissioners, depending on whether the facility is in a municipality or unincorporated area. This approval process includes holding a public hearing. If the applicant is dissatisfied with the municipal officers' decision, they can appeal to the director of the Gambling Control Unit within the Department of Public Safety. The license's validity depends on the approval and the date it was granted or renewed.
