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 918.

This bill extends through fiscal year 2002 the period during which highway user revenues
distributed to Baltimore City may be used to pay for students' costs of Mass Transit
Administration fares for eligible public school students.

Senate Bill 738, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on this
date, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House
Bill 918.

Sincerely,

Parris N. Glendening

Governor

House Bill No. 918

AN ACT concerning
Baltimore City - Highway User Revenues - Payment of Student Transportation Costs

FOR the purpose of extending the period during which highway user revenues distributed
to Baltimore City may be used to pay students' costs of discounted Mass Transit
Administration fares for eligible public school students in the City; and generally
relating to the use of highway user revenues in Baltimore City.
