SUBDIVISION IN WHICH THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED; AND

(II)  EACH MEMBER OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY IN
WHOSE LEGISLATIVE DISTRICT THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED.

(2)  IF THE NOTICE GIVEN UNDER PARAGRAPH (1) OF THIS
SUBSECTION IS FOR AT LEAST 2 PROPOSED SITES FROM WHICH 1 SITE IS
TO BE SELECTED, BEFORE ANY SITE IS FINALLY SELECTED, THE
DEPARTMENT SHALL GIVE WRITTEN NOTICE OF THE SITE THAT HAS BEEN

WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER RECEIVING ANY NOTICE UNDER SUBSECTION

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 41, §
231G-l(b)(2) through (6).

In subsection (a) of this section, the former phrase
"notwithstanding their size" is deleted as unnecessary
in light of the word "any".

In subsection (b)(1)(i) of this section, the phrase
"of each political subdivision" is substituted for the
word "appropriate", which formerly modified "governing
bodies", for clarity.
