The Honorable Thomas V. Mike Miller, Jr.
President of the Senate
State House
Annapolis MD 21401
Dear Mr. President:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed Senate Bill 437 - Cecil County - Development Excise Tax.
This bill authorizes the Board of County Commissioners of Cecil County to impose, by
law, a development excise tax for financing the capital costs of additional or expanded
public facilities or improvements in the county.
House Bill 1049, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on
April 25, 2000, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me
to sign Senate Bill 437.
Sincerely,
Parris N. Glendening
Governor
Senate Bill No. 437
AN ACT concerning
Cecil County - Development Excise Tax
FOR the purpose of authorizing the Board of County Commissioners of Cecil County
to impose, by law, a development excise tax; requiring the Board to advertise
and hold a public hearing before passing a local law imposing the tax or altering
the amount of the tax; requiring that the tax be imposed on a certain basis and
be paid at a certain time; limiting the amount of the tax that may be imposed;
requiring that the tax be deposited in a certain account which may be used only
for certain purposes and subject to certain procedural requirements; submitting
this Act to a referendum of the legally qualified voters of Cecil County; defining
a certain term; and generally relating to authorization for a development excise
tax in Cecil County.
BY adding to
The Public Local Laws of Cecil County
Section 34-16
Article 8 - Public Local Laws of Maryland
(1989 Edition and November 1999 Supplement, as amended)
SECTION 1. BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF
