John:
I had a request for Watch for Children signs in the Chapel Hill Subdivision off of Rt. 522 south of
Winchester. The description is as follows:
Rt. 1368 (Bentley Avenue) from Rt. 522 (Front Royal Pike) to 0.29 miles east of Rt. 522 (Front
Royal Pike)
Rt. 1369 (Shelby Court) from Rt. 1368 (Bentley Avenue) to 0.09 miles northeast of Rt. 1368
(Bentley Avenue)
It would be appreciated if you would have the Frederick County Board of Supervisors consider
and adopt a resolution on this request.
I am faxing a copy of this to Harrington Smith for his information.
Thanks
