266KK-2.
(a) Any political subdivision may apply to the Secretary
for designation of an area within that political subdivision as
an enterprise zone, but if a county seeks to designate an area
within a municipal corporation as an enterprise zone, then the
governing body of the municipal corporation must first consent.
(b) Any county may apply to the Secretary on behalf of a
municipal corporation, with the consent of such municipal
corporation, for designation of any area within that municipal
corporation as an enterprise zone.
(c) Two or more [counties] POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS may APPLY
jointly [apply] to the Secretary for designation of an area as an
enterprise zone which may be located astride their common
boundaries.
(d) The application shall be in the form and manner and
contain such information as the Secretary may, by regulation,
determine, provided that the application shall:
(1) Contain information sufficient for the Secretary
to determine if the criteria established in § 266KK-3 have been
met;
(2) Be submitted on behalf of the political
subdivision by its chief elected officer, or, if none, by the
governing body of the political subdivision;
(3) State whether the political subdivision has
examined the feasibility of creating educational or training
opportunities for employers and employees of business entities
located or to be located in the proposed enterprise zone; and
(4) Set forth the standards with which a business
entity must comply as a precondition to its receiving the
incentives and initiatives set forth in this subtitle.
(e) Within 60 days following any submission date, the
Secretary may designate one or more enterprise zones from among
the applications submitted to the Secretary on or before that
submission date, provided, however, that the Secretary may not
designate more than 6 enterprise zones in any 12 month period and
no county may receive more than 1 area designated as an
enterprise zone in any calendar year. The determination of the
Secretary as to the areas designated enterprise zones shall be
final, except that, for any area not designated an enterprise
zone, a political subdivision may reapply at any time to the
Secretary for designation of that area as an enterprise zone.
