Article - Real Property
Section 3-603

Annotated Code of Maryland
(1988 Replacement Volume and 1989 Supplement)

SECTION 1. BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF
MARYLAND, That the Laws of Maryland read as follows:

Article - Real Property

3-603.

The clerk may not charge any county, ANY MUNICIPALITY, the
Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, or the Washington
Suburban Sanitary Commission any fee provided by this subtitle unless the county,
MUNICIPALITY, or respective commission first gives its consent. No charge may be
made against the Comptroller for any service performed in connection with the

Maryland Sales and Use Tax laws.

SECTION 2. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That this Act shall take
effect July 1, 1990.

The Honorable Thomas V. Mike Miller, Jr.

President of the Senate

State House

Annapolis, Maryland 21401

Dear Mr. President:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed Senate Bill 342.

This bill exempts short-term tenancies arising after the sale of a home from certain
provisions of the Real Property Law concerning security deposits, rent receipts, rent
records, etc.

House Bill 489, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May
29, 1990, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign
Senate Bill 342.

Sincerely,

William Donald Schaefer

Governor

Senate Bill No. 342
