1910 Laws of Maryland Ch. 672
[building] development for which the permit is granted and may
impose reasonable requirements as a condition of granting such
permit, which requirements shall inure to the benefit of the [city]
county or municipal corporation.
[33]
6.03 Municipal Improvements in Streets; [Buildings] Development
not on Mapped Streets
No public sewer or other municipal street utility or improvement
shall be constructed in any street or highway until such street or
highway is fully placed on the official map. No permit for [the
erection of] any [building] development shall be issued unless a
street or highway giving access to such proposed [structure] develop-
ment has been duly placed on the official map. Where the enforce-
ment of the provisions of this section would entail exceptional diffi-
culty or unwarranted hardship and where the circumstances of the
case do not require the [structure] development to be related to
existing or proposed streets or highways, the applicant for such a
permit may appeal from the decision of the administrative officer
having charge of the issue of permits to the board of appeals. The
board may in passing on such appeal make any reasonable exception
and issue the permit subject to conditions that will protect any
future street or highway layout. Any such decision shall be subject
to review in the same manner and pursuant to the same provisions
as in appeals from the decisions of such board upon zoning
regulations.
