zoning regulations of the territory comprised within ap-
proved subdivisions. The Commission shall have the power
to agree with applicant upon use, height, area or bulk
requirements or restrictions governing buildings and prem-
ises within the subdivision, provided such requirements or
restrictions do not authorize the violation of the then
effective zoning ordinance of Howard County. Such re-
quirements or restrictions shall be stated upon the plat
prior to the approval and recording thereof and shall have
the same force of law and be enforceable in the same
manner and with the same sanctions and penalties and
subject to the same power of amendment or repeal as
though set out as a part of the zoning ordinance or map
of Howard County.
230-L. Whoever, being the owner or agent of the
owner of any land located within a subdivision, transfers
or sells or leases or agrees to sell or [negotiate] negotiates
to sell any land by reference to, or exhibition of, [or by
other use, ] of a plat or by any other means [of a sub-
division, ] before [such] a plat has been approved by the
Planning Commission and recorded, or filed, in the office
of the Clerk of the Circuit Court for Howard County, shall
forfeit and pay a penalty of One Hundred Dollars ($100. 00)
for each lot or parcel so transferred, leased, or sold, or
agreed, or negotiated to be sold; and the description of
[such] a lot or parcel by metes and bounds in the instru-
ment of transfer or other document used in the process of
selling or transferring shall not exempt the transaction
from such penalties or from the remedies herein provided.
The Board of County Commissioners of Howard County
may enjoin such transfer or lease or sale or agreement by
action for injunction brought in any court of equity juris-
diction or may recover the said penalty by civil action in
any court of competent jurisdiction, or both.
SEC. 2. And be it further enacted, That this Act is
hereby declared to be an emergency Act and necessary for
the immediate preservation of the public health and safety
and having been passed by a yea and nay vote supported
by three-fifths of all the members elected to each of the two
Houses of the General Assembly of Maryland, the same
shall take effect from the date of its passage.
Approved March 31, 1953.
