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, today I have
vetoed Senate Bill 755 - Ground Rents - Property Owned by Baltimore City -
Reimbursement for Expenses - Notices.
This bill provides that in any suit to recover back rent, a ground rent landlord may
recover no more than 3 years back rent if the property is owned by Baltimore City. It
also specifies a single place to send documents regarding ground rents on Baltimore
City properties.
House Bill 458, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me,
accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign Senate
Bill 755.
Sincerely,
Martin O'Malley
Governor
Senate Bill 755
AN ACT concerning
Ground Rents - Property Owned by Baltimore City - Reimbursement for
Expenses - Notices
FOR the purpose of providing that in any suit, action, or proceeding to recover back
rent, a ground rent landlord may only recover not more than a certain amount
of back rent if the property is owned by Baltimore City and is abandoned or
distressed under certain circumstances; authorizing a ground rent landlord of
property that is owned by Baltimore City and is abandoned or distressed to
request the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore to acquire the reversionary
interest under the ground rent for a certain value under certain circumstances;
prohibiting the application of a certain provision regarding reimbursement of a
ground rent holder's expenses to collect a ground rent on property that is owned
by Baltimore City and is abandoned or distressed under certain circumstances;
