The Honorable Casper R. Taylor, Jr.
Speaker of the House
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 1328.

This bill allows the County Commissioners for Cecil County to issue general obligation
bonds in an amount not to exceed $9 million for public school facilities and requires the
bonds maturity date not to exceed 20 years.

Senate Bill 608, 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 1328.

Sincerely,

Parris N. Glendening

Governor
