AI Summary

  • Reorganizes Colorado's bingo and raffle gaming statutes by relocating provisions from section 12-9-107 into new dedicated sections (12-9-106, 12-9-107.1, 12-9-107.2, 12-9-107.3) for clarity without changing substantive law.

  • Allows bingo-raffle licensees to conduct "event pull tab series" where specific winning numbers drawn in a bingo game determine prizes for matching pull tabs numbered 1-75.

  • Permits licensees conducting progressive games to maintain one additional checking or savings account containing only progressive game proceeds, with separate tracking requirements.

  • Clarifies that food offered to volunteers during bingo operations valued below a licensing authority-set limit is not considered remuneration.

  • Takes effect August 6, 2014, unless subject to a referendum petition, in which case it requires voter approval at the November 2014 general election.
