(B) SALES OF COPIES BY THE DEPARTMENT.

THE DEPARTMENT SHALL PROVIDE COPIES OF THE INFORMATION SET
FORTH IN SUBSECTION (A) OF THIS SECTION TO THE PUBLIC FOR A
REASONABLE FEE THAT REFLECTS THE COST OF REPRODUCTION.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 81, §
45(c).

In the introductory language of subsection (a) of this
section, the reference to "without charge" is
substituted for the former reference to "without fee
or reward", for clarity.

Also in the introductory language of subsection (a) of
this section, the former phrase "which any person may
inspect" is deleted as unnecessary in light of the use
of the phrase "public inspection".

Defined terms: "County" § 1-101

"Department" § 1-101 "Real property" § 1-101

"Supervisor" § 1-101

2-214. PRESENCE OF SUPERVISOR OF ASSESSMENTS OR ASSESSOR AT
HEARINGS.

TO EXPLAIN AND SUPPORT THE DEPARTMENT'S RECOMMENDATIONS, THE
SUPERVISOR FOR A COUNTY, OR AN ASSESSOR ASSIGNED TO THAT
SUPERVISOR, SHALL ATTEND ANY HEARING BEFORE THE PROPERTY TAX
ASSESSMENT APPEAL BOARD OF THAT COUNTY.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the first sentence of
former Art. 81, § 247.

The phrase "of that county", which modifies "property
tax assessment appeal board", is added for clarity.

The phrase "assessor assigned to that supervisor" is
added for clarity.

The reference to the "Department's recommendations" is
substituted for the former reference to the
recommendations of the supervisor and the assessors
because, under the current structure, all of the
supervisors and the assessors are employees of the
Department and their recommendations are
recommendations of the Department.

The former reference to "reviews" before a property
tax assessment appeal board is deleted as unnecessary
in light of the reference to a "hearing" before a
board.
