June 1, 1982
The Honorable Benjamin L. Cardin
Speaker of the House of Delegates
State House
Annapolis, Maryland 21404
Dear Mr. Speaker:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the
Maryland Constitution, I have today vetoed House Bill 814.
This bill authorizes the creation of a State debt. The
proceeds of this loan are to be used to continue the
Commercial Redevelopment Fund which is to be used for loans
or grants to a political subdivision to cover part of the
eligible project costs of an industrial or commercial
redevelopment project.
Senate Bill 514, which was passed by the General
Assembly and signed by me on June 1, 1982, accomplishes the
same purpose. Therefore it is not necessary for me to sign
House Bill 814.
Sincerely,
Harry Hughes
Governor
