Editor's note—In Holiday Universal, Inc. v. Montgomery County, 377 Md. 305, 833 A.2d 518 (2003), the Court held that Montg. Co. Code § 11-4A did not meet the requirements for a local law and, therefore, was invalid. The above section is discussed in Fosler v. Panoramic Design, Ltd., 376 Md. 118, 829 A.2d 271 (2003).
