§  194.  Control and supervision; suspension of identification numbers
  and licenses; inspection of premises.  1.  The  officer  or  department,
  shall  have  and  exercise  rigid control and close supervision over all
  games of chance conducted under such license, to the end that  the  same
  are  fairly conducted in accordance with the provisions of such license,
  the provisions of the rules and regulations promulgated  by  the  board,
  and  the  provisions of this article. Such officer or department and the
  board shall have the power and the authority to temporarily suspend  any
  license  issued  by  the  clerk  or  department  and/or impose fines for
  violations not to exceed one thousand dollars. Temporary  suspension  of
  licenses  shall  be promptly followed by a hearing, and after notice and
  hearing, the clerk, department, or board may suspend or revoke the  same
  and  declare the violator ineligible to apply for a license for a period
  not exceeding twelve months thereafter. Any fines tendered to the clerk,
  department, or board shall not be  paid  from  funds  derived  from  the
  conduct  of games of chance. The officer and the department or the board
  shall additionally have the right of entry, by their respective officers
  and agents, at all times into any premises where any game of  chance  is
  being  conducted  or  where  it  is intended that any such game shall be
  conducted, or where any equipment being used or intended to be  used  in
  the  conduct  thereof  is found, for the purpose of inspecting the same.
  Upon suspension or revocation of any  license  or  upon  declaration  of
  ineligibility  to  apply  for a license, the board may suspend or revoke
  the  identification  number  issued  pursuant  to  section  one  hundred
  eighty-eight-a  of  this article. An agent of the appropriate officer or
  department shall make an on site inspection during the  conduct  of  all
  games of chance licensed pursuant to this article.
2.  A  municipality may, by local law or ordinance enacted pursuant to
  the provisions of section one  hundred  eighty-eight  of  this  article,
  provide  that the powers and duties set forth in subdivision one of this
  section, shall be exercised by the chief law enforcement officer of  the
  county.    In  the  event  a municipality exercises this option the fees
  provided for by subdivision two of section one hundred ninety-five-f  of
  this  article,  shall  be  remitted  to  the chief fiscal officer of the
  county.
3. Subject to the applicable  provisions  of  the  alcoholic  beverage
  control law, beer, cider, mead, braggot and wine may be offered for sale
  during  the  conduct  of  games of chance on games of chance premises as
  such premises are defined in subdivision nineteen of section one hundred
  eighty-six of this article; provided, however, that nothing herein shall
  be construed to limit the offering  for  sale  of  any  other  alcoholic
  beverage in areas other than the games of chance premises or the sale of
  any  other alcoholic beverage in premises where only the games of chance
  known as bell jar or raffles are conducted.
