HARRY HUGHES, Governor                                       103

Subsection (c)(4) of this section also is added as
standard language. It follows from the requirement
that there be staggered terms. An inherent aspect of
staggered terms is that they must begin and end at set
intervals.

In subsection (a)(3) of this section, the reference to
the number of names on each list being "3 times the
number of vacancies" is substituted for the former
reference to a list of "three persons for each
vacancy", for clarity.

In subsection (a)(4) of this section, the reference to
the list being submitted "at least" 3 months before
the end of a term is added for clarity.

In subsection (c)(3) of this section, the reference to
"qualifies" is added for clarity.

Also in subsection (c)(3) of this section, the defined
term "member" is substituted for the former reference
to "regular member" to clarify that this provision
also applies to the alternate member.

In subsection (c)(5) of this section, the references
to the appointment power of the Governor are
substituted for the former phrases "can be chosen" and
"would be appointed", for clarity.

Also in subsection (c)(5) of this section, the
reference to a "regular", member is substituted for the
former reference to a "permanent" member, for clarity.

Subsection (d)(2) of this section is rephrased to
conform to the provisions of the Md. Constitution,
Art. II, § 15.

Former Art. 81, § 248(a)(2), which concerned
additional board members for Baltimore City, is
deleted as obsolete as the terms of those members
expired July 1, 1982.

Former Art. 81, § 248(c)(2), which provides for
collection of complaints by the Administrator of the
property tax assessment appeal boards, how appears as
§ 3-108(c) of this title.

Defined terms: "Administrator" § 3-101
"Board" § 3-101 "County" § 1-101
"Member" § 3-101

3-104. CHAIRMAN.

FROM AMONG THE REGULAR MEMBERS OF EACH BOARD, THE GOVERNOR
SHALL APPOINT A CHAIRMAN FOR EACH BOARD.
