The Oswego Village Board is looking at options to regulate future video gambling sites in town.
The Village Board in May 2013 approved video gambling in Oswego. The number of video gambling establishments currently in the village was one of the topics in the municipal election in the spring.
Ryan Kauffman defeated incumbent Troy Parlier in the April 4 election for village president. Kauffman listed video gambling licenses as one of his top five concerns during the campaign. He said gambling licenses have “doubled in the village and even more were being approved every day.”
”Residents have encouraged me to do something about this,” Kauffman said to board members at a July 18 meeting.
