WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor

Ch. 3

In former Art. 56, §§ 463 through 478, the word
"architect" occasionally was used as a generic term,
despite the definition in former Art. 56, § 464(b),
which purported to limit the term to "a person
registered ... in this State." To avoid the confusion
that misuse of the former defined term engendered,
this subsection is added, and former Art. 56, § 464(b)
is revised, in subsection (e) of this section, as the
defined term "licensed architect".

Defined term: "Practice architecture" § 3-101

(C)  BOARD.

"BOARD" MEANS, UNLESS THE CONTEXT REQUIRES OTHERWISE, THE
STATE BOARD OF ARCHITECTS.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 56, §
464(c).

The name of the Board is conformed to the substantive
provision that creates the Board. See the revisor's
note to § 3-201 of this title.

Defined term: "Architect" § 3-101

(D)  LICENSE.

"LICENSE" MEANS, UNLESS THE CONTEXT REQUIRES OTHERWISE, A
LICENSE ISSUED BY THE BOARD TO PRACTICE ARCHITECTURE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language added to
avoid repetition of phrases such as "license to
practice architecture".

Defined terms: "Board" § 3-101
"Practice architecture" § 3-101

(E)  LICENSED ARCHITECT.

"LICENSED ARCHITECT" MEANS, UNLESS THE CONTEXT REQUIRES
OTHERWISE, AN ARCHITECT WHO IS LICENSED BY THE BOARD TO PRACTICE
ARCHITECTURE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 56, §
464(b).

The term "licensed architect" is substituted, as the
defined term, for the former word "architect", to
avoid confusion when the word "architect" is used
