WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor Ch. 195
In Cecil [County] AND WORCESTER COUNTIES, the board of
license commissioners may not issue or transfer an off-sale
alcoholic beverages license of any class for the use in a
business that is intended to be operated as a drive-through
purchase facility where alcoholic beverages are to be sold at
retail and dispensed through a window or door to a purchaser in
or on a motor vehicle for off-premise consumption.
74.
(j) (1) In Worcester County, notwithstanding any other
provision of Article 2B, any corporation or club holding any
class of alcoholic beverages license other than Class C may,
during any license year, substitute the name of one of its
officers for the name of any other officer on the license when
the deleted officer has died, retired, been removed from office,
or no longer holds an office in the corporation or club if the
substitute is a fit person approved by the board and can meet all
the requirements the substitute would have to meet if the
substitute were named in the original application. The
corporation or club shall file an affidavit and application as in
the case of an original license application with the board of
license commissioners showing the substitution of the officer or
officers with an explanation of the substitution. Upon receipt
of the affidavit and application and after a find by the board
that the person is a fit person and would meet all the
requirements an original applicant must meet, the board shall
amend its records and issue a new license with the corrected
names on it. The corporation or club shall pay a fee of $100 to
the board of license commissioners for the service. The fee for a
transfer and for assignment of a license is the greater of $50 or
25 percent of the annual fee of the license being transferred in
addition to the cost of publication, notice, and any hearing fees
required.
(2) IN WORCESTER COUNTY, THE LICENSE COMMISSIONERS

AS A DRIVE-THROUGH PURCHASE FACILITY WHERE ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES
ARE TO BE SOLD AT RETAIL AND DISPENSED THROUGH A WINDOW OR DOOR
