ROAD NAME CHANGE REQUESTS - APPROVED UNDER CONSENT AGENDA
The Frederick county Road Naming Committee is continuing to
review road name change requests on a monthly basis. At the
committee's last meeting, held this date at 1:00, the committee
review eight road name issues.
The Committee submits the following recommendations for
action by the Board of supervisors:
Recommendation for Approval:
A. The following road name requests have met the requirements
set forth by the Board and the Road Naming Committee feels that
these changes would assist in clarifying street addressing:
l. FROM: Uptacrick Lane
TO: Cedar Creek Lane
2 . FROM: Home Lane
TO: Country Squire Lane
3. FROM: Cove Road
TO: Rock Enon Springs Road
B. In continuing efforts to work with the local county govern-
ments and our emergency response personnel, Tom Owens and Mark
Lemasters met with a representative of the Shenandoah County
Planning Department and worked on resolving conflicting road
names.
Shenandoah county will be working on continuing names and
numbering for the following roads:
Paddys Run Road, Rt. 602
valley Pike, Rt. 11 South
Wardensville Pike, Rt. 55
Minebank Road, Rt. 622
Middle Road, Rt. 628
In return Shenandoah County requests that Frederick County:
1. Change the name of the southern most portion of Rt.
600, from Oates Road to Zepp Road and continue Shenandoah County
numbering to the intersection of Paddy Cove Road, Rt. 60l.
(Reference map is attached)
166.
2. Frederick County citizens are currently accessing their
property from Shenandoah County state routes, and have been
erroneously assigned addresses in the Frederick system that are
nowhere close to being correct. It is therefore requested that
Frederick County adopt the following road name into their
Official Road Name Listing:
Cedar Creek Road
(Reference map is attached)
C. In the original numbering of the county, some confusion on
where road names began and ended on their designated routes.
The committee requests the following actions to eliminate some
of these problems:
1. Rename the portion of Rt. 625 currently known as Hites
Road, from the Town of Middletown to the intersection with Rt.
627, Chapel Road. Of the suggestions submitted by the citizens
the committee has selected Veterans Road. There fore the
committee requests approval of the following change:
From: Hites Road, Rt. 625 (southern portion)
To: Veterans Road, Rt. 625 (southern portion)
2. Because state routes 628 and 622, and routes 622 and
627 have over lapping sections of roadway, there has been some
confusion of the road layout for name designation. The commit-
tee request that the Board take the following actions:
a. Rename Rt. 627 from Rt. 622 to Cedar Creek
From: Chapel Road, Rt. 627
To: Chapel Lane, Rt. 627
b. Confirm approval of the road names as shown on the
attached map. with the exception of the dead-end
lane portion of Rt. 627, Chapel Road, the names
and numbering are as shown on the map, citizens
have received notification, only one objection,
and the names and numbering are working as de-
signed.
