Bill > HB874

This bill increases the number of members on the Board of License Commissioners for Anne Arundel County from three to five, and requires the Governor to appoint these members from a list of individuals recommended by the Anne Arundel County delegations to the General Assembly, meaning the local state representatives and senators. It also alters the eligibility requirements for Board membership by limiting the number of members from the same political party to three and adding a new restriction that no more than two members can be residents of the same state legislative district. Furthermore, the bill mandates that the Board must adopt and publish a written policy concerning conflicts of interest and how Board members should recuse themselves from matters where a conflict exists.
