REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 27, § 251A(a).
The introductory language of this section is revised as authorization to
certain qualified organizations to conduct bingo for clarity.
In the introductory language of this section, the former limitation
"[n]othing in this subtitle [sic] shall be construed to make it unlawful" 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.
Also in the introductory language of this section, the former reference to
"operating]" bingo is deleted in light of the reference to "conduct[ing]"
bingo.
In item (1) of this section, the former reference to a municipal corporation
in the County that is "subject to the provisions of Article XI-E of the
Constitution of Maryland" is deleted because all municipal corporations in
Worcester County are subject to Article XI-E of the Maryland
Constitution.
In items (1) and (5)(ii) of this section, the reference to "applying for a
license under this part" is substituted for the former reference to "the
application to the Worcester County bingo board" for clarity.
In item (1) of this section, the reference to a religious "organization" is
substituted for the former reference to a religious "group" for accuracy and
consistency with § 13-2621(a)(3) of this subtitle.
In item (5)(i) of this section, the reference to a "license" application is
added for clarity.
Also in item (5)(i) of this section, the reference to the license application
"filed with" the Board is substituted for the former reference to the license
application "to" the Board for accuracy and clarity.
