Jerry Markling, the Nevada State Gaming Control Board’s enforcement division chief, has announced his retirement effective end of August 2013.
Markling has served over 22 years with the Gaming Control Board and spent 8 years of those as enforcement division chief.
Having served a total of 43 years in Government service, Markling said he was moving on to take advantage of a “new opportunity in the industry”.
A.G. Burnett, Gaming Control Board Chairman said: “He’s [Markling] been an incredible asset to the board and a trusted colleague of mine. I have relied on his opinion and advice regarding complicated criminal and gaming regulatory matters, just as four previous chairmen did.”
Burnett will name Markling’s successor before his departure, a statement said.
