AND

(III) KNOWN AS THE CALVERT COUNTY FAIRGROUNDS.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 81, §
9C(e-2), (f), and the first sentence of (a)(1), as
that sentence related to Calvert County property tax
credits.

In the introductory language of subsection (a) of this
section, the defined term "municipal corporation" is
substituted for the former phrase "any city", for
clarity.

In subsection (b)(1) of this section, the word "only"
is substituted for the former words "exclusively" and
"solely", for clarity and consistency. Therefore, the
former phrase "is devoted to" is deleted as
unnecessary in light of the phrase "used only".

In subsection (b)(1)(ii) of this section, the former
references to "fee[s]" and "[assessments" are deleted
as unnecessary in light of the word "compensation".

Defined terms: "Corporation" § 1-101

"County" § 1-101 "County property tax" § 1-101

"Governing body" § 1-101 "Includes";"including" § 1-101

"Municipal corporation" § 1-101

"Municipal corporation property tax" § 1-101

"Real property" § 1-101
