DRAFTER'S NOTE: This section is derived without substantive change from

provisions of § 7.01 of this subtitle, the provisions of former § 7.01(c) of this
subtitle apply only to counties (including Baltimore City) and not to
municipal corporations. The new section was created to avoid confusion in
the application of those provisions.
