Bensalem Township Council Enacts Gaming Device Ban
Bensalem, PA – Bensalem Township Council Enacts Gaming Device Ban
On Monday, Bensalem Township Council adopted an ordinance prohibiting local gaming devices, also known as “skill games,” throughout the township. The ordinance, approved by Mayor Joseph DiGirolamo, will take effect in ten days.
Over the past two years, there has been an increase in these unregulated devices, with the township estimating approximately 170 currently in operation. Concerns over related criminal incidents and the welfare of residents, particularly minors, led township officials to collaborate with Bucks County District Attorney Jennifer Schorn, resulting in the proposed ordinance.
The ban applies to all locations except those with an active Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board license, which must ensure age-restricted access to these devices. Non-compliance will incur fines and potential revocation of premises permits.
Officials believe this measure will enhance community safety by removing these devices and reducing loitering at retail establishments. The ordinance is part of ongoing efforts to maintain the quality of life in Bensalem Township.
