1/6/92 Transportation Committee Agenda Page -2-
1) The first item in your agenda package regards a request from Mr. John F. Eversole,
Jr., to have the Virginia Department of Transportation install minor safety measures
along Route 704. Mr. Eversole understands that this particular road section is slated
for improvements on the County's Six Year Secondary Plan; however, he and others
along this road are concerned about the time frame involved. Enclosed is a letter
from Mr. Eversole explaining the safety measures he believes are needed at this time.
2) The second item in your agenda package is a request from Mr. James W. Golladay,
Jr., to rename Golladay Road to Sherando Road. Mr. Golladay believes that this
will be easier for identification purposes in this part of the county. The current
policy of Frederick County requires that all proposed road names be reviewed by the
Graphics Technician. This is part of the Board of Supervisors policy to implement
an Enhanced 911 system, and is required to insure that road names are not
duplicated or phonetically similar. Enclosed is a page from the current road names
in Frederick County for your information.
3) Enclosed is a copy of the survey requested by the Virginia Association of Counties.
This survey was sent to all localities in the state as a result of the Virginia
Department of Transportation's 'Blueprint for Transportation Policy". Also enclosed
is a copy of the resolution drafted by the Frederick County Board of Supervisors
opposing this policy.
4) Other.

Dear Mr. Wyatt:
This letter is submitted as.a follow-up to our recent telephone conversation
concerning petitioned improvements to Route 704, south of Gore.
As you know this road segment is included in the non-scheduled portion of the
county six-year plan. Complete improvements to this road as petitioned for
several years ago are obviously still several years in the future. During
the interim period the signers of our original petition request completion
of all minor improvements possible, i.e., guard rails, no dumping signs,
speed limit signs, etc. There are several dangerous banks with little or
no shoulder that need attention. In addition there are several hidden
driveways, including two of mine, that should have appropriate warnings
erected nearby.
Thank you for your attention to our concerns.
Sincerely
OHN F. VERSOLE, JR.

Dear Kris:
At the next meeting of the Transportation Subcommittee
please request that they rename Golladay Road to Sherando Road.
I realize that this may create some hardship on the
homeowners living along this section whose homes face on this
road, but believe that it would be more in keeping with the
overall transportation network which we have developed for
this area of the County. It would also act as a reference
for the new High School.
Thank you, in advance, for your consideration to this
matter.
Sincerely,
James W. Golladay Jr.

U. IMPACT OF SECRETARY MILLIKEN'S PROPOSAL
A. 1992-93 Urban or Secondary Allocation (estimated) 2,073,787
20% Local Match (S) 414.75 7.40
B. How would you describe the impact that a 20% match requirement would
have on your general fund and/or capital budget?
This would significantly impact the Frederick County General
Fund by requiring the County to use money currently budgeted for
school construction, as well as education in general. The 20%
match requirement will create a significant hardship to Frederick
County at a time when state revenues are declining.
C. Should use of the street maintenance allocation be made more flexible? What
changes would you like to see implemented? How beneficial would this be
to your locality?
NA -
D. Would you consider switching your highway allocation to transit assistance?
NA
RESOLUTION OPPOSING "BLUEPRINT FOR TRANSPORTATION POLICY"
SFAS, the Virginia Department of Transportation will
be conducting public hearings on the Secretary of
Transportation's "Blueprint for Transportation Policy"; and
WHEREAS, said proposals will have dramatic negative
fiscal implications on local government operating budgets; and
WAS, said proposals which would allow certain
.transportation functions to be performed by local government,
such as traffic light installation, do not address transfer of
liability or fiscal responsibility; and
WHEREAS, increasing eligibility participation in the
transportation revenue sharing program without significantly
increasing the funding will only deplete the fund more
rapidly; and
WHEREAS, creating a separate rail division only increases
the bureaucracy in Richmond, Virginia.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Frederick County
Board of Supervisors opposes any Virginia Department of
Transportation proposal that increases the Frederick County
government's liability exposure and fiscal responsibility; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that these proposals be tabled
until the Commonwealth of Virginia can identify the revenue
sources to fund these new local government proposals.

County Administrator
County of Frederick, Virginia
