| Question/Topic: |
I am trying to determine which agency of the state government regulates gambling casinos, so that I can develop a list of those establishments.
|
| Answer/Pointer: |
Casino gambling is illegal in Florida, except on Indian reservations.
There are gambling casinos run by the Seminole Indian Tribe and the Miccosukee Tribe at several reservations in the state. They are not regulated by the state. There is a list of the Seminole casinos at this Web site:

The Micosukee Tribe has gaming facilities at its Krome Ave. reservations. For more information about these, you can contact the Tribe by telephone at (305) 223-8380, by Fax at (305) 223-1011 or by snail mail at P.O. Box 440021, Miami, FL 33144. There is an e-mail form at this Internet address:
