Dear Mr. President:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed Senate Bill 337.

This bill consolidates and revises provisions of the Housing Authorities Law and the
Housing Cooperation Law in Articles 44A and 44B of the Code.

House Bill 475, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May 2,

Senate Bill 337.

Sincerely,

William Donald Schaefer

Governor
