been previously approved by Wyandotte County and Doge City casinos.
The lottery's gaming facilities director , Keith Kocher, stated "We've
negotiated something in the neighborhood of 20 of these contracts, so we have a
pretty good idea what it is we want to see in these contracts, what we're
willing to accept, and what we can accept under the law".
The lottery is looking for incentives higher than 22 percent given by casino
revenues. The revised application and review procedures are to be posted on
their website.
