THE COUNTY TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR A PERMIT UNDER THIS SECTION.
(D) BONA FIDE CHARITY.
AN ORGANIZATION THAT IS EXEMPT FROM TAXATION UNDER § 501(C)(3) OF THE

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 27, § 251B(a)(2), (3), and (4).
Subsection (a) of this section is restated as an affirmative grant of
authority to certain organizations to conduct a fundraiser for clarity.
In the introductory language of subsection (a) of this section, the reference
to a "fundraiser" is substituted for the former reference to a "fund-raising
affair" for consistency with the terminology used throughout this part.
Also in the introductory language of subsection (a) of this section, the
reference to "gaming devices" is substituted for the former reference to
"devices commonly known as paddle wheels, wheels of fortune, chance
books, raffles, or ... any other gaming device" for brevity.
Also in the introductory language of subsection (a) of this section, the
former limitation "[n]otwithstanding any other provision of this article," is
deleted in light of § 13-101 of this title and the reorganization of material
derived from the former "Gaming" subheading" of Article 27 in Titles 12 and
13 of this article.
In subsection (a)(2) of this section, the reference to a volunteer fire
company unit "that is supported by the county or a municipal corporation
in the county" is substituted for the former reference to a "county or
municipally supported" volunteer fire company or auxiliary unit for clarity
and accuracy.
In subsection (a)(3) of this section, the reference to members who are
directly associated with the organization "or auxiliary unit" is added for
consistency within this subsection.
In subsection (a)(5)(ii) of this section, the reference to operating "as a
nonprofit organization" is substituted for the former reference to operating
"on a nonprofit basis" for clarity and consistency with § 13-2606(5)(ii) of
this subtitle.
