Section 322. Approval of plans of corporation or association

The state
  racing  and  wagering  board  shall  not  grant  to  a  corporation   or
  association hereafter formed pursuant to sections two hundred twenty-two
  through  seven  hundred  five  of  this  chapter, a license to conduct a
  harness race meeting at  which  pari-mutuel  betting  may  be  conducted
  within  the  state  until  such  corporation  or  association shall have
  submitted to the board a statement  of  the  location  of  its  proposed
  grounds and racetrack, together with a plan of such racetrack, and plans
  of  all  buildings,  seating stands and other structures in such form as
  the board may prescribe, and such plans  shall  have  been  approved  in
  writing  by  the  board. Such plans shall show that its paddock and barn
  areas can accommodate and serve the needs of horses and  horse  trainers
  that  participate  in  live  racing  at  such  facility.  Alterations or
  discontinuance  of  existing  buildings,  seating   stands   and   other
  structures,  and  the  erection  of new or additional buildings, seating
  stands or other structures may be  made  only  with  the  prior  written
  approval  of the board and after examination and inspection of the plans
  thereof and the issuance of a permit therefor by the  state  racing  and
  wagering board. The board at the expense of the applicant may order such
  engineering  examination  thereof  as  the board may deem necessary. The
  approval of the certificate of  incorporation  of  such  corporation  or
  association  shall not be deemed to vest in it the right to a license to
  conduct harness race meetings at such race course  or  racetrack  unless
  such  grounds,  track,  buildings,  seating  stands and other structures
  shall be completed in accordance with the plans approved by the board.
