Legislation


May 26, 2004

The Honorable Michael E. Busch
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 1179 - 2020 Rural Maryland - Agricultural and Resource-Based Industry Development Act.

This bill establishes the Maryland Agricultural and Resource-Based Industry Development Corporation for specified purposes. It authorizes the corporation to acquire and dispose of property, finance specified projects, and issue, redeem, and secure bonds and debt, including revenue bonds and refunding bonds.

Senate Bill 589, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May 26, 2004, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House Bill 1179.

Very truly yours,
Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr.
Governor
