The Honorable Michael E. Busch
Speaker of the House
State House
Annapolis, MD 21401
Dear Mr. Speaker:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, today I have
vetoed House Bill 841 — Public Safety - Volunteer Company Assistance Fund - State
Budget.
This bill clarifies that a grant from the Volunteer Company Assistance Fund must be
matched by at least 30% of the amount of the grant, limits loans from the Fund to
75% of the total cost of equipment or facilities being purchased, alters the application
and approval process for grants and loans from the Fund, alters requirements for an
annual report on grants and loans made from the Fund, and expresses legislative
intent related to appropriations to and from the Fund.
Senate Bill 228, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me,
accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House
Bill 841.
Very truly yours,
Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr.
Governor
House Bill No. 841
AN ACT concerning
Public Safety - Volunteer Company Assistance Fund - State Budget
FOR the purpose of clarifying and altering certain requirements and limitations on
the award of grants and loans from the Volunteer Company Assistance Fund;
altering certain procedures for the award of grants and loans from the Fund;
repealing requirements for each request for a grant or loan from the Fund to be
submitted to the Department of Budget and Management for approval and to
the Department of Legislative Services for review; altering certain requirements
