Creates the offense of operation of a video lottery terminal

HB 3219 creates a new class E felony offense for operating a video lottery terminal, defined as any device that uses electronic, mechanical, or digital means to accept payment and generate prizes based on symbols. The law applies to anyone operating such a terminal without being the owner, renter, or lessor, except for licensed excursion gambling boats. This bill directly affects businesses or individuals running unlicensed video lottery terminals by imposing criminal penalties. The key mechanism establishes a specific felony classification for unauthorized operation, with the exception for existing licensed boat operations.
