David Wooten Chair Vice-Chair Vice-Chair Vice-Chair Vice-Chair Vice-Chair December 1, 2000 The Honorable Parris N. Glendening Governor The State of Maryland State House Annapolis, MD 21401 Dear Governor Glendening: While low unemployment rates and rising household incomes have rocketed Maryland into an unprecedented period of economic prosperity, several Eastern Shore counties have been left in the wake without the resources to reach their economic potential. At the request of the Eastern Shore Delegation, in December 1999, the Governor's Task Force on Eastern Shore Economic Development (Executive Order 01.01.1999.36) was authorized to address issues surrounding this economic disparity. On March 6, 2000, the first full Task Force, composed of nearly 200 representatives from state and local government, education, private industry, and community affairs, met at Chesapeake College to discuss the outlook for the region. The Task Force set as its goal to establish a forum in which business, government, and leaders from the entire Eastern Shore could provide leadership in developing smart growth strategies through a private/public partnership. These strategies would allow Eastern Shore residents to share in the current and future prosperity being realized across Maryland. State, local, and community leaders compose the steering committee, formed to assist the Task Force Chair. For the partnership to succeed, the Task Force urged each of the nine counties on the Eastern Shore to take part in a regional strategy and expanded the membership to ensure that each county has been adequately represented.

Editor Issued By FRED L. WINELAND Secretary of State Annapolis, Maryland Distributed and Sold By Department of General Services Hall of Records Commission Annapolis, Maryland The John D. Lucas Printing Company 2601 Sisson Street Baltimore, Md. 21211 Copyright 1975 By The Hall of Records Commission of the State of Maryland FOREWORD The MARYLAND MANUAL SUPPLEMENT for 1975-1976, is an updated and abbreviated version of the 1973-1974 MARYLAND MANUAL. It contains an overview of State and local Government reflecting organizational and personnel changes that have occurred since the spring of 1974. With its name and general index and tele- phone numbers, including those for members of the General Assembly, it should prove an invaluable reference tool. However, it should be used in conjunction with the current MARYLAND MANUAL, be- cause it does not contain agency descriptions, certain election returns, historical data, or relevant documents such as Maryland’s Charter and the State Constitution, all of which are to be found in the 1973- 1974 MANUAL. As is the case with the full MARYLAND MANUAL, this SUP- PLEMENT could not have been compiled without the cooperation of many individuals and agencies, and to them we are greatly in- debted. Although it is not practical to mention each by name we are especially grateful to the Honorable George R. Lewis, Secretary of the Department of General Services, of which we are a part, for his constant support and encouragement of the project.
