Dear Mr. President:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, today I have
vetoed Senate Bill 450 - Cecil County - Dog and Kennel Licenses.
This bill excludes Cecil County from specified provisions of law relating to dog and
kennel licenses and requires that the fees, terms, and forms for dog and kennel
licenses in Cecil County be determined by the County Commissioners of Cecil County.
House Bill 852, 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 450.
Very truly yours,
Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr.
Governor
Senate Bill No. 450

dog and kennel licenses; requiring that the fees, terms, and forms for dog and
kennel licenses in Cecil County be determined by the County Commissioners of
Cecil County; and generally relating to requirements for dog and kennel licenses
in Cecil County.
BY repealing and reenacting, with amendments,
Article 24 - Political Subdivisions - Miscellaneous Provisions
