Box 808 Winchester, Va. 22601 Dear Jim; This letter is to confirm our telephone conversation of this date concerning the possible need to use industrial access funding to finance a portion of the railroad crossing improvements on Brooke Road in conjunction with other improvements at the Brooke Road-Rt. 11-Brick Kiln Road intersection. Mr. Bushman of VDH&T has stated that the new addition to VDO could be used as the industrial project which is necessary in order to apply for these funds, if necessary. In order to apply, I must have a letter on VDO letterhead stating the following information: 1. A description of the articles to be manufactured in the new addition. 2. The exact usage of the building. If there is to be a combination of uses ie. offices and manufacturing, an approximate percentage breakdown of the area devoted to each use. 3. The approximate capital outlay involved in the addition. 4. The estimated number of new employees as a result of the new addition. If sufficient funding can be found from other sources, there may not be the need to use the industrial access funds. In order to avoid delay, however, VDH&T is trying to cover all bases at the beginning in order to expedite actual construction of the project. I would appreciate it if you could contact VDO in order to obtain this letter. It can be addressed to me at the address on the attached card. Thank you very much fot-'your assistance. Please contact me, if you have any questions. Sincerely; qJn T.P. Horne 9 Court Square P.O. Box 601 - Winchester, Virginia 22601 COUNTY of FREDERICK IDepartment of Planning and Development John T.P.
