The Ohio Department of Administrative Services has announced that two firms will be retained to assist Governor Kasich and the Ohio Casino Control Commission in plotting Ohio’s future on various gaming issues such as casinos, VLTs and horse racing. Spectrum Gaming Group of Linwood, New Jersey, was hired to primarily assist with the rules and regulations, as well as whether or not Ohio should allow additional gaming beyond the casinos. Their work could take as long as two years. Moelis & Company of Los Angeles will concentrate on the finances – gambling fees and taxes. The bulk of their work should be complete in six months. Both companies will be paid at the rate of $400 an hour.
