properties. In the case of rejection of an application, the Supervisor
or the Department of Assessments in Baltimore City shall notify the

by Sec. 29 of this article and of the right to hearing and appeal as
provided in Secs. 255 and 256 of this article.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, no property
shall be approved for exemption hereunder if the law providing for
the exemption of the property was adopted after the effective date of
this section, unless the law is included in this Article 81 of the
Annotated Code.
