Speaker of the House

Dear Mr. Speaker:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed House Bill 182.

This bill increases the time limitation from 90 to 120 days in which a subcontractor or his
agent has to give written notice of intention to claim a mechanics' lien in order to be
eligible for the lien.

Senate Bill 197, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May 14,
1996, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House
Bill 182.

Sincerely,

Parris N. Glendening

Governor
