Ch. 3

LAWS OF MARYLAND

practice of the Board. The grace period of 30 days is
expressly specified for the renewal of licenses and is
applied in the same manner for the renewal of permits.

In subsection (a) of this section, the defined term
"permit" is substituted for the former reference to a
"certificate of authorization", to provide a term that
describes the authority granted a partnership or
corporation and is consistent with the language used
to describe similar grants of authority in connection
with other business occupations that are regulated
under this article. See the General Revisor's Note to
this article.

In subsection (c)(4) of this section, the phrase "on
the form that the Board provides" is standard language
added to conform to similar provisions elsewhere in
this title.

The first sentence of former Art. 56, § 470(c)(2),
which allowed renewal of a permit issued on or before
June 30, 1975, without meeting the requirements for
professional composition and designation of a
corporate director as a responsible member, is deleted

as unnecessary in light of § 10 of Ch. ___, Acts of

1989, which ensures that enactment of this . article
does not affect, e.g., permits. In any event, the
Department indicates that all of the current permit
holders comply with the general requirements for
renewal.

As to the authority of the Board to set fees, see §
3-209 of this title.

Defined terms: "Board" § 3-101
"Permit" § 3-101

3-409. NOTICE OF CHANGE.

WITHIN 1 MONTH AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE CHANGE, A
PERMIT HOLDER SHALL SUBMIT TO THE BOARD AN APPLICATION FORM THAT
SHOWS A CHANGE IN THE NAME OF:

(1)  A RESPONSIBLE MEMBER OF THE HOLDER;

(2)  AN OFFICER OR DIRECTOR, IF THE HOLDER IS A
CORPORATION; OR

(3)  A PARTNER, IF THE HOLDER IS A PARTNERSHIP.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the third sentence of
former Art. 56, § 470(c)(3).
