Ch. 5

2003 LAWS OF MARYLAND

Defined term: "Rehabilitation project" § 12-1001

(E)     DEPARTMENT.

"DEPARTMENT" MEANS THE DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language added to avoid repetition
of the full title of the "Department of Housing and Community
Development".

(F)     EXISTING BUILDING.

"EXISTING BUILDING" MEANS A BUILDING OR STRUCTURE THAT WAS ERECTED
AND OCCUPIED, OR WAS ISSUED A CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY, AT LEAST 1 YEAR
BEFORE A CONSTRUCTION PERMIT APPLICATION FOR THE BUILDING OR STRUCTURE
WAS MADE TO A LOCAL JURISDICTION, THE MARYLAND-NATIONAL CAPITAL PARK
AND PLANNING COMMISSION, OR THE WASHINGTON SUBURBAN SANITARY
COMMISSION.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection formerly was Art. 83B, § 6-502(e).

The reference to a construction permit application made to "the
Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, or the
Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission" is added for consistency with
§ 12-1004(c) of this subtitle.

The only other changes are in style.

Defined terms: "Construction permit application" § 12-1001
"Local jurisdiction" § 12-1001

(G)     LOCAL JURISDICTION.
"LOCAL JURISDICTION" MEANS:

(1)      A COUNTY; OR

(2)      A MUNICIPAL CORPORATION IN THE STATE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language derived without
substantive change from former Art. 83B, § 6-502(f).

In item (1) of this subsection, the former reference to "the City of
Baltimore" is deleted as unnecessary in light of § 1-101 of this article,
which defines "county" to include Baltimore City.

In item (2) of this subsection, the former reference to a municipal
corporation in the State "subject to the provisions of Article XI-E of the
Constitution" is deleted as unnecessary since all municipal corporations in
the State are subject to Article XI-E of the Maryland Constitution.

Defined term: "County" § 1-101
