The State Appeal Board was established in 1933
as the "State License Bureau" (Chapter 2, Acts of
the Special Session of 1933). In 1947 the General
Assembly changed the name to the State Appeal
Board (Chapter 501, sec. 177, Acts of 1947). The
Board is composed of three members appointed by
the Comptroller of the Treasury subject to the
approval of the Governor. The Comptroller desig-
nates the chairperson of the Board and the Board
appoints a secretary. It hears appeals from deci-
sions of local licensing authorities in Dorchester
and Somerset counties (Code 1957, Art. 2B, secs.
61, 70, 147, 154, 177, 184). The Board meets for
hearings and to hear appeals within the time
prescribed by law at the county seat of the county
in which the action originated. The appropriation
for the expenses of the Board is included in the
budget of the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax Division.

The Board of Revenue Estimates and the Bureau
of Revenue Estimates were created by Chapter
991, Acts of 1945. The Board is composed of the
Comptroller of the Treasury, the State Treasurer,
and the Secretary of Budget and Fiscal Planning. It
studies the findings and recommendations of the
Bureau and then sends to the Governor, for
submission to the General Assembly, an itemized
statement of anticipated revenues for the succeed-
ing fiscal year, together with its recommendations.
The Bureau studies and analyzes all sources of
revenue, prepares for the Board the findings for the
itemized statement of anticipated revenue, devises
equitable and economical means of collection of
such revenue, and devises and recommends new
sources of revenue.

The Director of the Bureau of Revenue Esti-
mates, in conjunction with the State Comptroller's
Office, prepares and submits to the members of the
General Assembly by the end of each January and
July an itemized statement of revenue estimates for
the six-month period ending on the next preceding
December 31 or June 30, as the case may be. The
statement shows 1) estimated revenue from all
sources, by funds, for the current budget period; 2)
collections for the next preceding six-month peri-
od; and 3) amount of revenues uncollected or over-
collected (Code 1957, Art. 41, sec. 194). The
appropriation for the Bureau of Revenue Estimates
is included in the budget of the Comptroller of the
Treasury.
