Summary
The board accepted state suitability determinations and approved several county gaming-license issuances, including a Tonopah sportsbook (Mitzvah Club) and multiple slot-route applications for Century Gaming Technologies; applicants said they planned to begin operations promptly after approval.
The Nye County Board of Commissioners accepted proof of state-issued gaming license approvals and voted to issue county gaming licenses for multiple applicants during the Feb. 3 meeting.
For Item 7 the board approved issuance of a gaming license to Joseph Asher (Brandywine Gaming, doing business as Boomer Sportsbook / Mitzvah Club at 138 N. Main St., Tonopah). Staff reported the state's suitability determination and the county investigator recommended approval. Applicant Joe Asher said, "if you choose to approve us, we're looking forward to getting open right after the meeting." The motion to approve carried, recorded as 6–0 in the meeting record.
Under Items 8–11 the board accepted proof of state approvals and approved county licenses for slot-route operations associated with Century Gaming Technologies and United Coin Machine Company for multiple locations in Pahrump, Beatty and Tonopah. Company representatives and compliance staff joined by phone to answer questions and confirmed readiness to go live once county licenses were issued.
The board approved the licenses following staff recommendations that the applicants satisfied county suitability requirements and the state had already issued corresponding gaming authorizations. No appeals or conflicts were raised during the public-comment period for these items.
