Effective January 17, 2010 the Michigan Gaming
Control Board (MGCB) officially assumed the duties of the
Office of the Racing Commissioner (ORC).
On October 8, 2009, Michigan Governor Jennifer
Granholm issued Executive Order No. 2009-45 which, among
other things, transfers the regulation of horse racing
from the Office of Racing Commissioner to the MGCB. The
ORC and the position of Racing Commissioner were
abolished by the Order.
MGCB Executive Director Rick Kalm now performs the
functions of the Racing Commissioner.
