II. BALTIMORE CITY
When Baltimore City became a separate governmental entity, divorced from all county connections, it maintained the officers characteristic of Maryland county government at that time with the exception of those in the Executive Branch, who were called Mayor and Council rather than Board of County Commissioners. Since that time the expansion of the City has brought about a high degree of specialization in the executive and adminis- trative agencies so that the present government of Baltimore, with the exception of the traditional county offices and functions, bears little resem- blance to the government of most counties. Nevertheless, there seems to be sufficient resemblance between the city charter and the charters of Mont- gomery and Baltimore counties to justify grouping the city offices in cate- gories similar to those worked out for the charter counties. Information about the methods of appointment and terms of office of the traditional county officers will be found on pp. 421-425. Such information about all other city officials will be found in the footnotes
'Appointed by the Supreme Bench of Baltimore City (Oh 224, Acts of 1966). ' For method of appointment, see Constitution 1867, Art IV, sec 41-A |
