WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor

Ch. 3

In subsection (b)(1)(ii) and (iii) of this section,
the requirements for an inspection before "open[ing]
for business at a new location" or "continu[ing]
business under a new owner" are substituted for the
former requirement for an inspection "prior to its
changing proprietorship or location" since the purpose
of the inspection seemingly is to determine the effect
of the change, and this purpose can be accomplished
only after the change occurs.

In subsection (d)(1) and (2) of this section, the
references to barber schools are added to conform to
the practice of the Board to inspect barber schools in
the same way that the Board inspects barbershops.

The fourth sentence of former Art. 56, § 429(d), which
allowed the Board to assess fees for inspection, is
deleted as unnecessary. The fees to which the former
law referred are the fees charged for pre-opening
inspections. In practice, the Board does not charge
fees for sanitary inspections.

As to the fee for a pre-opening inspection, see §
4-503(a)(2)(ii) of this subtitle.

Defined terms: "Barber" § 4-101
"Barbershop" § 4-101 "Board" § 4-101
"Secretary" § 1-101
