Unless conducted at an event requiring a permit under subsection (a) of this section, a raffle is not a multiple gaming device regulated under this section. In this subsection, “charity” means an organization, institution, association, society, or corporation that is exempt from taxation under § 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The county commissioners may issue a permit to use multiple gaming devices to: a bona fide religious organization that has conducted religious services at the same location in the county for at least 3 years before applying for a permit; a county-supported or municipally supported volunteer fire company or an auxiliary unit whose members are directly associated with the volunteer fire company or auxiliary unit; a nationally chartered veterans’ organization or an auxiliary unit whose members are directly associated with the veterans’ organization; for the purpose of conducting a fundraiser for the benefit of a charity located in the county, a bona fide: fraternal organization; educational organization; civic organization; patriotic organization; or charitable organization; or a bona fide nonprofit organization that: has operated on a nonprofit basis in the county for at least 3 years before applying for a permit; and intends to use the multiple gaming devices to raise money for an exclusively charitable, athletic, or educational purpose specifically described in the permit application. Before issuing a permit, the county commissioners shall determine that the organization seeking the permit: is organized in and serves the residents of the county; and meets the conditions of this subtitle. Except as provided in subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph, a permit is valid for one event that does not last longer than 6 hours. The county commissioners may issue a permit for an event longer than 6 hours if the permit holder does not seek more than one permit in the same year. The county commissioners may not approve a permit for gaming events to be held on premises that are licensed under a Class B or Class D alcoholic beverages license. The county commissioners may not issue more than six permits to an organization in a single year. The county commissioners may: charge a fee set by resolution for each permit; set the number of permits that may be issued each year; and adopt regulations governing permit applications and the issuance of permits. An organization that is issued a permit shall conduct its fundraiser in a: structure that the organization owns, leases, or occupies; structure that any organization that would qualify for a permit owns, leases, or occupies; or public location that is: described in the permit application; and approved by the State’s Attorney for the county. Unless the county commissioners grant a waiver, only a resident of the county may manage and operate a fundraiser for which a permit is issued on behalf of the permit holder. Each permit holder shall designate an individual to be responsible for compliance with the terms and conditions of this subtitle and a permit issued under this subtitle. A person may not be compensated for operating the gaming activity conducted under a permit. The permit holder shall use at least one-half of the funds raised using the permit for civic, charitable, or educational purposes. Within 30 days after a fundraiser, the permit holder shall send to the county commissioners: an accounting of all funds received or pledged; an accounting of all expenses paid or incurred; and a statement under oath of the application of the net profits. The county commissioners may deny a permit for not more than 3 years to an organization that violates this subtitle or regulations adopted under this subtitle.
