The park is bounded on the north and west by Amelia Avenue and on the south and east by Amherst Avenue and contains roughly 30,000 square feet. Now that Fredericktowne Company has, with a few exceptions, sold out of this project, we desire to turn these parcels over to others. We feel that it would be appropriate if the property is conveyed to a property owners association composed of persons owning property in Section I. We are ready, willing and able to convey title to said properties, at no cost to you, to a property owners association which is truly rep- resentative of the property owners in the subdivision. This letter is being written to all property owners in Section I with the hope that it will lead to the formation of such an organization. Fredericktowne Company will take no furthur steps to diverst itself of this property for a period of 60 days from date of this letter. There- after, however, in the event that a property owners association is not formed; we will feel at liberty to offer the property to the Frederick County Parks and Recreation Department for its use as a park, as a capital - raising venture or for any other purpose it feels appropriate. This could include the sale of the property by the Parks and Recreation Department and its use and subdivision as residential property. Fredericktowne Company will take no action to oppose such a resubdivision or resale of the property. It should be clearly understood that in the event that Fredericktowne Company does convey the property to a property owners association, Frederick- towne Company will no longer be responsible for the maintenance of that parcel or for real property taxes on it. Should you have any questions about the contents of this letter,please feel free to contact the Fredericktowne office.

I do not want to leave without expressing to you my appreciation for your cooperation with and kindnesses to me.

Many times you have accommodated me in a personal way and I do appreciate it.

The park is bounded on the north and west by Amelia Avenue and on the south and east by Amherst Avenue and contains roughly 30,000 square feet. Now that Fredericktowne Company has, with a few exceptions, sold out of this project, we desire to turn these parcels over to others. We feel that it would be appropriate if the property is conveyed to a property owners association composed of persons owning property in Section I. We are ready, willing and able to convey title to said properties, at no cost to you, to a property owners association which is truly rep- resentative of the property owners in the subdivision. This letter is being written to all property owners in Section I with the hope that it will lead to the formation of such an organization. Fredericktowne Company will take no furthur steps to diverst itself of this property for a period of 60 days from date of this letter. There- after, however, in the event that a property owners association is not formed; we will feel at liberty to offer the property to the Frederick County Parks and Recreation Department for its use as a park, as a capital - raising venture or for any other purpose it feels appropriate. This could include the sale of the property by the Parks and Recreation Department and its use and subdivision as residential property. Fredericktowne Company will take no action to oppose such a resubdivision or resale of the property. It should be clearly understood that in the event that Fredericktowne Company does convey the property to a property owners association, Frederick- towne Company will no longer be responsible for the maintenance of that parcel or for real property taxes on it. Should you have any questions about the contents of this letter,please feel free to contact the Fredericktowne office.
