148                             LAWS OF MARYLAND                        [CH. 86

CHAPTER 85
(Senate Bill 208)

AN ACT to repeal Sections 27 to 37, inclusive, of the Code of Public
Local Laws of Allegany County (1955 Edition, being Article 1 of
the Code of Public Local Laws of Maryland), title "Allegany
County", sub-title "Bowling Green", repealing an obsolete local
law of Allegany County which constituted the Village of Bowling
Green as a special tax area or district.

Whereas, the General Assembly by Chapter 852 of the Acts of
1947 constituted the Village of Bowling Green in Allegany County
as a special tax area or district; and

Whereas, the effect of this Act was made subject to a referendum
and this referendum was declared invalid by the Circuit Court for
Allegany County on September 4, 1947 (No. 20,070 Equity); and

Whereas, for this reason the Act of 1947 has never been effective
and should be repealed; now, therefore,

Section 1. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Maryland,
That Sections 27 to 37, inclusive, of the Code of Public Local Laws
of Allegany County (1955 Edition, being Article 1 of the Code of
Public Local Laws of Maryland), title "Allegany County", sub-title
"Bowling Green", be and they are hereby repealed.

Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, That this Act shall take effect
June 1, 1963.

Approved March 14, 1963.

sioners to provide for the payment of interest and principal of
