The Honorable Casper R. Taylor, Jr.
Speaker of the House of Delegates
State House
Annapolis MD 21401
Dear Mr. Speaker:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed House Bill 108.
This bill requires the State Treasurer, after consultation with local government officials,
to adopt by emergency regulation local government guidelines that state the type of
investments in which public funds may be invested, provide guidance for the prudent
investment of public funds on cash flow projections, income, liquidity, investment ratings
and risk, prohibit borrowing of funds for the express purpose of investing those funds, and
design a form that is adaptable to the investment needs of each "local government unit."
Senate Bill 86, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May 9,
1995, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House
Bill 108.
Sincerely,
Parris N. Glendening
Governor
