Each organization authorized to conduct bingo shall conspicuously post within that portion of the premises where bingo is played one or more notices as required by the executive director containing certain designated rules governing the conduct of bingo and its bingo permit.

(d) The executive director may, for good cause, require each organization authorized to conduct bingo to retain the services of one or more uniformed police officers of the city or town where the bingo session is conducted who shall be in attendance from the time sale of cards or bingo opportunities commence until net proceeds have been secured by deposit or otherwise. Such police officer(s) may be compensated at the rate not to exceed the rate currently prevailing for such services in said city or town. Compensation of such police officer(s) shall be a reasonable and necessary expense incidental to the conduct of bingo, payment of which is authorized pursuant to section 7-169-27a subsection (b) of these administrative regulations governing the operation of bingo.
