The Seneca Nation of Indians have a new gaming compact with the state of New York.
At least temporarily.
The Seneca reportedly reached a short-term extension of its gaming compact, which was due to expire Dec. 9. Officials landed on the agreement after a face-to-face meeting between Seneca President Rickey Armstrong Sr. and Gov. Kathy Hochul.
The new deal now runs through March 31. Officials will continue negotiations on a more-permanent compact. This temporary extension will automatically renew unless one side decides not to do so or if both parties agree on a new deal. Terms of this compact are unchanged from the previous agreement.
