Richard Kalm, whose appointment as Executive Director of the Michigan Gaming Control Board was set to expire this year, has been appointed by Governor Snyder to serve an additional six-year term as Executive Director of the MGCB. The appointment has received the requisite approval of the Michigan Senate.
