additional requirements except where inconsistent with those
listed elsewhere in this subtitle:

(k) (1) The provisions of this subsection apply only
to Wicomico County.

(2)  Where three officers of a club as
individuals apply for a Class C club license, a statement
indicating a pecuniary interest in the business to be

(3)  All license applications shall contain a
statement that the applicant is at least 21 years old. Where
there is more than one applicant, at least one of them shall
be at least that age.

(4)  The board of license commissioners may give
tentative approval of an application on the basis of plans
and specifications accompanying the application when an
application is made to sell alcoholic beverages in an
incompleted building, or portion of it, or a building or
portion of it which is to be remodeled or renovated. Final
approval may be given only upon the completion of
construction or remodeling according to the plans.

(5)  THE APPLICATION FOR A NEW LICENSE OF ANY

FEE REQUIRED FOR A LICENSE IN WICOMICO COUNTY, AND THE
APPLICATION FEE MAY NOT BE RETURNED WHETHER THE LICENSE IS
GRANTED OR DENIED. THE APPLICATION FEE SHALL BE USED BY THE

ITS FUNCTIONS. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SUBSECTION DO NOT
APPLY TO AN APPLICATION FOR A LICENSE BY WAY OF RENEWAL OR
TRANSFER FOR THE SAME PREMISES.

(a) Any holder of a license under the provisions of
this article, including a receiver or trustee for the
benefit of creditors, may be permitted to transfer his place
of business to some other location or sell or assign the
license and transfer his stock in trade to another person,
but only if application for the transfer or sale has been
made; all retail sales, amusement, admission, and
withholding taxes have been paid to the Comptroller of the
Treasury of the State; a bulk transfer permit is obtained if
the stock of alcoholic beverages is to be transferred
whether by sale, gift, inheritance, assignment, or
otherwise, and irrespective of whether or not consideration
is paid; and the new location or assignee is approved as in
the case of an original application for such a license.
