Note: Information faxed to Mr. Harrington Smith
Teresa,
I received a phone call from Mr. Morgan Fulk (540) 667-5145 stating that the
residents were requesting "Children At Play" signs in the Red Fox Run
Subdivision.
I was unable to locate this request in my office and you did not have
records in your office; therefore, I am listing below the termini for the
Frederick County Board of Supervisors resolution for these signs.
The termini is as follows:
* Route 1368 (Bentley Avenue) from Route 522 (Front Royal Pike) to
Route 1374 (McClure Way)
* Route 1373 (Grindstone Drive) from Route 522 (Front Royal Pike) to
Route 1374 (McClure Way)
* Route 1374 (McClure Way) from 0.10 miles east of Route 1368 (Bentley
Avenue) to 0.15 miles west of Route 1373 (Grindstone Drive)
I have reviewed these locations and agree that they qualify for these type
signs.
Thanks
-Jerry-
