On February 14, 1978, the Frederick County Metropolitan Commission ceased to exist as a separate entity. It is the intent and purpose of the General Assembly of Maryland that on and after February 14, 1978, the county shall succeed to and exercise all the powers previously exercised by the commission, and the county shall undertake and thereafter perform any and all obligations of the commission, either as successor to any district or incurred on its own behalf. All property, real, personal, and mixed owned by the metropolitan commission or any predecessor is hereby conveyed and transferred to the board without the necessity of any deeds or other writings.
