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 286 - State Government - Department of Planning.
This Administration bill makes the Office of Planning a principal department of State
government and changes the name to the Department of Planning and provides that
the Secretary of Planning is to be appointed by the Governor with the advice and
consent of the Senate. It designates the Attorney General as legal advisor and
requires the Attorney General to assign assistants to the department and designate
one as counsel. It is the intent of the General Assembly that there be no increase in
the State budget of the Department of Planning for fiscal 2001 or subsequent years
directly resulting from the bill's provisions. Also, with the exception of one provision
for which the Governor must issue a proclamation, the bill takes effect July 1, 2000.
Senate Bill 204, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May
11, 2000, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign
House Bill 286.
Sincerely,
Parris N. Glendening
Governor
House Bill No. 286
AN ACT concerning
State Government - Department of Planning
FOR the purpose of removing provisions designating the Office of Planning as a
separate unit of State government; renaming the Office of Planning to be the
