voting on school-related issues. He made the following statement in reference to an upcoming agenda item:

CAPITAL FUND TRANSFER IN THE AMOUNT OF $852,557 FOR A WEAPONS DETECTION
SYSTEM FOR FCPS - APPROVED
Supervisor Lockridge moved to deny the request for a Capital Fund Transfer in the amount of$852,557
for a Weapons Detection System for FCPS. Chairman Ludwig seconded the motion.
Supervisor Lockridge said she is not opposed to the safety efforts, but that the School Board is able to
use capital funds already appropriated for other projects and she prefers that they do so instead of requesting
additional funds.
Chairman Ludwig said the Schools already have funds for such projects, and he hoped to hear from
School Resource Officers about their reference for safety devices. He encouraged the Schools to apply for
grants to fund safety programs.
Supervisor Jewell said the devices will provide an extra layer of protection for students and staff.
Supervisor Liero said it is not fair to say the School Board had not prioritized safety, as the incident of
a gun being brought into an elementary school happened late in the County's budget process.

Brandon Monk the Committee recommends Staff to execute the Route 7 Safety Upgrades
Agreement as presented.Staff gave an overview of the agreement that will allow Frederick County
to move forward with safety upgrades to Route 7 at its interchange with Exit 315 and the
intersection with Valley Mill Road. This project will extend turning lanes that access the 1-81
Northbound ramps and Valley Mill Road. These lanes regularly experience spillovers which adds
to capacity restrictions on Eastbound Route 7. This project will be funded by County safety funds
previously budgeted and utilizing VDOT forces. In addition, this project will be done in sequence
with another VDOT funded safety project at the intersection of Valley Mill Road and its eastern
Intersection with Route 7. That project will also improve turning safety for vehicles accessing
Valley Mill Road and restrict left turns from Valley Mill to westbound Route 7.

Grant application to the Department of Rail and Public Transit for improvements associated with
a rail spur to the Winchester and Western Railroad from a scrap metal recycling facility on Ebert

ITEMS FOR INFORMATION ONLY:

Primary and Secondary with only a few minor updates from last year. Staff started with the

corridor. The Primary Road Plan only revisions are additions for clarity. Staff continued with the
Secondary Road Improvement Plan overview with the major road improvement projects that will
have minor changes. It was suggested to consider adding Vaucluse Road to the unscheduled no-
hard surface Road improvement projects because of the recent Conditional Use Permit that had

suggested not to be added at this time. Upon a motion made by Heather Lockridge, seconded by

Interstate, Primary and Secondary Improvement with revisions.
