ROBERT L. EHRLICH, JR., Governor S.B. 18
May 26, 2005
The Honorable Thomas V. Mike Miller, Jr.
President of the Senate
State House
Annapolis, MD 21401
Dear Mr. President:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, today I have
vetoed Senate Bill 18 — St. Mary's County - Property Tax - Credit for Individuals over
Age 70.
This bill authorizes the governing body of St. Mary's County to grant, by law, a tax
credit against the county property tax imposed on specified real property owned by
individuals at least 70 years old and of limited income. The bill also authorizes the
governing body of St. Mary's County to provide, by law, for eligibility criteria for the
credit, the amount and duration of the tax credit, regulations and procedures, and any
other provision necessary to carry out the credit as well as making the Act applicable
to specified taxable years.
House Bill 121, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me,
accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign Senate
Bill 18.
Very truly yours,
Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr.
Governor
Senate Bill No. 18
AN ACT concerning
