MINUTES OF THE HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMISSION FOR WASHINGTON COUNTY November 1, 2023 The Washington County Historic District Commission held its regular monthly meeting on Wednesday, November 1, 2023 at 7:00 p.m. in the Washington County Administration Complex, 100 W Washington Street, Room 2001, Hagerstown, MD. CALL TO ORDER AND ROLL CALL The Chairman called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. Commission members present were: Greg Smith, Chairman, Lloyd Yavener, Michael Lushbaugh, Vernell Doyle and Justin Bedard. Staff members present were: Washington County Department of Planning & Zoning: Meghan Jenkins, GIS Coordinator and HDC Staff member. MINUTES Motion and Vote: Mr. Yavener made a motion to approve the minutes of the October 4, 2023 meeting as presented. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lushbaugh and unanimously approved. NEW BUSINESS 11609 Kieffer Funk Road [SP-23-037] Ms. Jenkins presented a site plan for a proposed solar generating system on property located at 11609 Kieffer Funk Road. The solar array will contain 26,416 panels and 47 inverters as well as a 7 foot fence. This property is split with zoning designations of RT (Residential Transition) and A(R) (Agricultural Rural). The solar array is proposed on the portion of property zoned A(R) which is outside the Growth Area. There are no historic resources adjacent to the proposed solar array; however, there are a few historic resources close by. None of these sites are eligible for the National Register. There is a family cemetery on the parcel which contains the dwelling; however, it is not close to the proposed solar arrays. Discussion and Comments: Mr. Bedard asked if an archeological survey was required by MHT. Ms. Jenkins said there were no comments regarding an archeological survey included in MHT’s comments but she will follow up on this question. Mr. Smith noted there has been a lot of controversary surrounding this project in the past. Ms. Jenkins stated neighbors were concerned about the visual impacts to their properties. Members noted that most of the historic structures are surrounded by significant tree cover. The standard note on the plan that the property contains historic resources is sufficient. 12440 Burkholder Lane, Lot 1 for Martin Property [S-23-058] Ms. Jenkins presented a subdivision plat for the Martin property located at 12440 Burkholder Lane. A warehouse and connecting road to Northpoint Development is proposed on Lot 1 (123+/- acres) with the remaining lands containing the Kershner-Burkholder Farm (MIHP I336). Discussion and Comments: Ms. Jenkins noted that the County may require the developer to allow space on the site for future connections to other roads. There was a brief discussion regarding the HP overlay on the dwelling. Ms. Jenkins stated that was suggested during the preliminary consultation and a letter was sent to the property owner. Ms. Jenkins noted that during the Dickinson Farm site visit there was a cemetery mentioned on one corner of the subject property. She will check if an archeological survey will be completed. Mr. Bedard suggested that an evaluation for National Register eligibility should also be conducted. The standard note indicating historic resources on the remaining lands should be included on the subdivision. OTHER BUSINESS Staff Report • Staff Reviews - Ms. Jenkins provided a written summary. • 2024 Meeting calendar – Ms. Jenkins presented a draft calendar for the 2024 HDC meetings.

These permits are issued solely on the basis of meeting technical requirements of applicable code.” The review criteria for demolition permit is the same as the evaluation criteria in the Washington County Design Guidelines for Historic Structures. 1. The application shall be approved by the HDC if it is consistent with the following criteria: A. The proposal does not substantially alter the exterior features of the structure. B. The proposal is compatible in character and nature with the historical, cultural, architectural, or archeological features of the site, structure, or district and would not be detrimental to achievement of the purposes of Article 20 of the County Zoning Ordinance. C. The proposal would enhance or aid in the protection, preservation and public or private utilization of the site or structure, in a manner compatible with its historical, archeological, architectural, or cultural value. D. The proposal is necessary so that unsafe conditions or health hazards are remedied. E. The Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMISSION Buildings and subsequent revisions are to be used as guidance only and are not to be considered mandatory. 2. In reviewing the plans for any such construction or change, the HDC shall give consideration to and not disapprove an application except with respect to the factors specified below. A. The historic or architectural value and significance of the site or structure and its relationship to the historic or architectural value and significance of the surrounding area. B. The relationship of the exterior architectural features of the structure to the remainder of the structure and to the surrounding area. C. The general compatibility of exterior design, scale, proportion, arrangement, texture, and materials proposed to be used. D. Any other factors, including aesthetic factors, that the Commission deems to be pertinent. 3. The HDC shall be strict in its judgment of plans for those structures, sites, or districts deemed to be valuable according to studies performed for districts of historic or architectural value. The HDC shall be lenient in its judgment of plans involving new construction, unless such plans would seriously impair the historic or architectural value of surrounding structures. Staff Report: The structure is listed on the Maryland Inventory of Historic Properties as part of the Ravenswood Heights Historic District (WA-I-887) which was surveyed as part of the Southern Boulevard Phase 1 documentation in 2011. Ravenswood was marked for NR eligibility by both the preparer and MHT for Criteria A for its association with the Hagerstown (electric) Railway and as an example of a 20th Century suburban development. It was also noted that Criteria C was applicable for the bungalow and Colonial Revival style houses within in it. The documentation did not result in a National Register district being created nor is the Ravenswood Heights area a Historic District Commission review area for exteriors. The structure of 1244 Frederick Street sits along the east side of Frederick Street and the SE quadrant of the traffic circle which is the current terminus of Southern Boulevard. The main house has some visibility from Frederick St. which is largely obscured by trees. During the pre-construction of Southern Boulevard Phase 1, this structure and its property were acquired by the County. It was not demolished at that time nor can access to Frederick Street be provided due to the construction of Phase I removing viable access to the home. A revised entrance was not permitted due to access spacing requirements and the lack of right of way from adjacent owners. It has therefore been vacant for 12+ years. The structure is described as “Brick bungalow with gabled dormer. Flemish bond brickwork at front. Two bays with three-part front window with 4 vertical panes over 1. Art deco-influenced entrance with sidelights and transom. Square porch posts on brick piers. Ca. 1925.” (MIHP Ravenswood WA-I-887) The rear of the structure has a one-story frame addition. There are a few outbuildings of cinderblock and frame construction including a garage. The interior of the structure appears largely intact with original moldings, doors, paneling, bannisters, flooring, radiators and a built-in. An Asbestos, Lead Based Paint, and Regulated Materials Assessment was conducted in January of 2024 and results were provided which indicate the presence of some materials which require a contractor licensed to remove. Asbestos was found in some insulation materials and caulking while Lead Paint was found in mostly the exterior of the main building and the outbuildings. The building also appears to have some water damage due to a roof failure and/or unsecured windows. The County intends to plant trees over a portion of the property not needed for right of way. HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMISSION Staff Analysis: While there are currently no final plans for Southern Boulevard Phase 2, this property falls into the approximately 150’ right of way seen previously in Phase 1’s construction. As Phase 2 (by others) moves forward in the drafting of plans, the demolition of this building is unlikely to be avoidable to meet necessary site distance and design components. There is no viable access to the property to have continued use. The property has had several reports for vagrancy which have been addressed by ensuring the building envelope is locked at ground levels, however, they still occur causing concerns for property owner liabilities. The removal of this building, due to its existing minimal visibility, will have little impact to the surrounding landscape. Staff Recommendation: Recommend support of this demolition permit (2024-00586) for 1244 Frederick Street for the reasons stated in the staff analysis with the following additional conditions: 1. The County has not bid the services for demolition of the property yet. It is recommended that the bid stipulate that all salvageable materials including exterior bricks, moldings, windows, doors, paneling, radiators and any other materials the contractor deems salvageable be removed from the property prior to the remainder being demolished. A contractor qualified to handle selective demolition and dispense of the materials to a proper source for their reuse should be included in the language as well. This should be a standard policy for the County moving forward for all structures but especially those older than 50 years. 2. Staff also recommends that there be a thorough assessment of the County’s buildings which have been/will be acquired to ensure that they are properly secured at all times and utilize the mothballing methods detailed by the National Park Service Preservation Brief #31 – Mothballing of Historical Buildings. This is especially the case for buildings older than 50 years. 3. Staff also recommends that Ravenswood Heights documentation be revisited for potential National Register nomination at a later date with the Historic District Commission, Maryland Historical Trust and affected property owners. Respectfully Submitted, Meghan Jenkins, GISP Historic District Commission Staff Attachments: • Photos provided by Applicant • Permit Submission Packet • Asbestos, Lead Based Paint, and Regulated Materials Assessment Norman Creek Environmental, LLC 416 Katherine Avenue Baltimore, Maryland 21221 443-690-8659 January 26, 2024 Ms. Jessica Klinefelter Montgomery Wallace 10150 York Road Hunt Valley, MD 21030 Letter Report: Asbestos, Lead Based Paint, and Regulated Materials Assessment, 1244 Frederick Street, Hagerstown, MD; Project No. 231228-4 Dear Ms. Klinefelter, Norman Creek Environmental (NCE) was retained by Wallace Montgomery to perform an asbestos, lead based paint, and regulated materials inspection of the above referenced site to include: • Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM), • Lead-Based Paint • Other Regulated Materials, and The Site is a residential building with two floors above grade and a below grade basement. The structure is approximately 1288 square feet above grade and was constructed in 1935, according to State Department of Assessment and Taxation records. The purpose of this inspection was to identify ACM, lead-based paint and other regulated materials at the above listed property. This inspection included the entire building. No access limitations were determined at the time of the assessment. Asbestos Containing Materials William Montley (MDE Accreditation #230003591) conducted the asbestos inspection and sampling at the Site. The purpose of this inspection was to identify asbestos containing materials (ACM) that may be regulated by NESHAP / Maryland during renovation or demolition activities. Regulated ACM (RACM) must be removed by a Maryland Licensed Asbestos Contractor in accordance with COMAR 26.11.21, if the RACM will be impacted by renovation or demolition activities. Asbestos, Lead Based Paint, and Regulated Materials Assessment 2 | Page 1244 Frederick Street, Hagerstown, MD; Project No. 231228-4 A total of 49 samples were collected and shipped January 11, 2024, via UPS to SanAir Technologies for analysis using polarized light microscopy (PLM). A total of 76 PLM analyses were completed due to material layering. Bulk Asbestos Sampling Data, Quantification Data, and Laboratory analysis reports and chain of custody forms are attached to this report. Sampling and analysis identified the following materials as ACM: Asbestos Containing Thermal System Insulation (RACM) • TSI Pipe Insulation and Fitting Insulation (35-65% Chrysotile) • Flue Mud at Chimney Brick (25% Chrysotile) Asbestos Containing Surfacing Materials (RACM) • None Misc. Friable* Asbestos Containing Material (RACM) • None Non-Friable ACM (may become RACM during renovation or demolition) • Exterior Building Caulk (3% Chrysotile) Refer to attached data sheet for approximate quantities of identified asbestos. The asbestos containing pipe and pipe fitting insulation and the flue mud is considered a RACM and is required to be removed by a Maryland Licensed Asbestos Contractor in accordance with COMAR 26.11.21. It should be noted that demolition of interior walls that may contain hidden and buried reservoirs of asbestos containing pipe and pipe fitting insulation was not conducted as part of the assessment. NCE recommends that prior to demolition of the building, the Contractor should open wall and ceiling cavity areas to confirm hidden and buried asbestos pipe insulation is not encountered. In the event asbestos pipe and pipe fitting insulation is found within wall or ceiling cavities, the ACM should be removed prior to demolition activities beginning. The Exterior Building Caulk is considered a Category I Non-friable asbestos. Category I Non-friable asbestos may remain in a building during demolition. All debris associated the demolition that may contain Category I Non-friable asbestos can be disposed of as construction debris in a landfill that accepts Category I Non-friable asbestos. * * Substances are referred to as being “friable” if they can easily become airborne, thus enabling them to become respirable (able to enter human lungs), posing an inhalation health hazard. Asbestos, Lead Based Paint, and Regulated Materials Assessment 3 | Page 1244 Frederick Street, Hagerstown, MD; Project No. 231228-4 Lead-Based Paint The purpose of the LBP inspection was to gain a general understanding of whether LBP is present in the painted surfaces at the Site, and if so, what types of components contain LBP. Representative interior and exterior painted components were selected for testing at the discretion of the NCE Inspector. NCE’s William Montley conducted XRF analyses using a SciAps X-550 PMI XRF analyzer. Prior to and subsequent to each inspection event, “validation checks” were performed to ensure that the XRF measurements taken during the inspection truly reflect lead levels at the inspection sample points. NCE performed validation check measurements on the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Standard Reference Material using the nominal 1.0 milligram per cubic centimeter (mg/cm2) paint film. In accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations, each validation check was a 20-second nominal sample of the NIST Standard Reference Material. All validation check readings were within this range. A total of 82 XRF readings were taken during the inspection. All XRF readings are provided as an attachment to this report (“XRF Sampling Data”). Readings with an upper limit of greater than 0.70 mg/cm2 are considered “positive”. Each different component type found to be positive is listed here: Main House • Column, wood, white, Exterior, Front Porch • Window, wood, white, Exterior, Front Porch • Window frame, wood, white, Exterior, Front Porch • Door frame, wood, white, Exterior, Front Porch • Ceiling deck, wood, white, Exterior, Front Porch • Porch soffit, wood, white, Exterior, Front Porch • Door, wood, white, Exterior, East Wall • Door frame, wood, white, Exterior, East Wall • Siding, wood, white, Exterior, East Wall (assumed) • Window, wood, white, Exterior, East, Wall • Window frame, wood, white, Exterior, East, Wall Garage • Wall siding, wood, light green, Exterior, Garage Based on the assessment, it appears that no interior components were found to contain lead-based paint in the Main House. Several exterior components were identified as containing lead based paint on the Main House and Garage Building. Asbestos, Lead Based Paint, and Regulated Materials Assessment 4 | Page 1244 Frederick Street, Hagerstown, MD; Project No. 231228-4 Contractors impacting surfaces containing lead must adhere to OSHA’s Lead in Construction Standard (29 CFR 1926.62). Lead-containing materials should also be sampled and analyzed using the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) with lead analysis to ensure proper waste segregation and disposal (40 CFR 261.24 and COMAR 26.13.02.14). Other Regulated Materials NCE conducted the inspection of “other regulated materials” as follows: Fluorescent Tubes (Mercury) Mercury is used to generate light in all fluorescent lamps. When electric current passes through mercury vapor, the mercury emits ultraviolet energy that passes through the phosphor coating producing light. Mercury-containing lamps are considered to be hazardous waste unless tested using the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP). The TCLP test simulates landfill-leaching conditions; specifically how much mercury will leach out of the waste when exposed to typical landfill conditions. If the leachable amount of mercury is equal to or greater than 0.2 mg/l, the waste is classified as hazardous waste. Disposal of mercury-containing lamps may be managed under the 1995 Universal Waste Rule (UWR). The UWR reduces requirements for generators of certain widely used hazardous wastes including batteries, pesticides, thermostats and fluorescent lamps (added in 1999). Generators may dispose of mercury-containing hazardous lamps under the UWR if they do not exceed certain monthly disposal limits. The UWR reduces costs by streamlining requirements such as: obtaining and EPA ID #, labeling, storing materials on site, responding to releases, training personnel, and tracking and transporting waste. A visual inspection of the entire building was conducted to identify the presence or absence of fluorescent lamps. A lamp-by-lamp count was not conducted; rather quantities of fluorescent lamps are estimates based on observations and professional judgment. There are approximately 15 fluorescent tubes in the building and garage. Refrigeration Systems (Chlorofluorocarbons): Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) are organic compounds, used as refrigerants. DuPont’s brand name for CFC is “Freon”. CFCs are also used as propellants and solvents. The Asbestos, Lead Based Paint, and Regulated Materials Assessment 5 | Page 1244 Frederick Street, Hagerstown, MD; Project No. 231228-4 concern related to CFCs is their capacity for atmospheric ozone depletion, when released. Section 608 of the Clean Air Act regulates CFCs. These CFC regulations are comprehensive and cover all aspects of CFC use, handling and disposal. That said, it is important that disposal of all CFC-containing equipment adheres to requirements outlined by Section 608 of the Clean Air Act. A visual inspection of the entire building was conducted to identify equipment that may contain CFCs (e.g. equipment with refrigeration systems in place such as air conditioning units, vending machines, chillers, refrigeration units). Visually Identified items are listed below: • No CFC containing equipment was noted. Fluorescent Light Ballasts (PCBs) Processing and use of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) was banned in 1979 in the United States. Prior to that, PCBs were commonly used as insulators in electrical equipment because they have a high tolerance to heat, do not burn easily and are not explosive. Fluorescent light ballasts manufactured before 1979 may contain PCBs. Ballasts manufactured on or after 1979 that do not contain PCBs should be labeled “No PBCs”. If a ballast is not labeled “No PCBs”, it should be assumed to contain PCBs. Ballasts known or assumed to contain PCBs should be removed, transported and disposed of in accordance with Maryland and EPA guidelines for handling PCB hazardous waste. A visual inspection of the entire building was conducted to identify the presence or absence of fluorescent light ballasts in the building. Approximately 5 fluorescent light ballasts were identified during the inspection. A portion of these ballasts were checked for PCB’s, each ballast checked was not labeled “No PCB’s”. The ballasts should be assumed to contain PCB’s unless labeled as containing No PCB’s. Thermostats & Thermometers (Mercury): Certain thermostats contain mercury switches used to turn heating and cooling systems on and off. The mercury is contained in a small glass ampoule. Most mercury thermostats were made between 1953 – 1990. Mercury-containing thermostats are considered to be hazardous waste. Disposal of mercury-containing thermostats may be managed under the 1995 Universal Waste Asbestos, Lead Based Paint, and Regulated Materials Assessment 6 | Page 1244 Frederick Street, Hagerstown, MD; Project No. 231228-4 Rule (UWR). The UWR reduces requirements for generators of certain widely used hazardous wastes including batteries, pesticides, thermostats and fluorescent lamps. Generators may dispose of mercury-containing hazardous thermostats under the UWR if they do not exceed certain monthly disposal limits. The UWR reduces costs by streamlining requirements such as: obtaining and EPA ID #, labeling, storing materials on site, responding to releases, training personnel, and tracking and transporting waste. A visual inspection of the entire building was conducted to identify the presence or absence of thermostats. No mercury containing thermostats were noted. Petroleum Products Small quantities (ie: quart size oil containers) of oil, and other petroleum based products are considered HHW and can be disposed of or recycled at an approved citizen drop off treatment of recycling facility according to MDE. Larger quantities (ie: 50 gallon drums) must be disposed of at separate facilities licensed to accept larger quantities of these items. The below listings are all oil, and petroleum based products identified in the building. Small quantity items can be disposed of at approved citizen drop off centers while large quantity items will need to be transported by a licensed shipper, and disposed of at a regulated facility. Petroleum Product/ Oil / Lubricants • Two quarts of Automatic Transmission Fluid were noted in the Garage Fire Suppression Equipment Office buildings typically contain fire suppression equipment such as chemical fire extinguishers or fire suppression systems. In areas where important documents are stored buildings will sometimes have chemical gas fire suppression systems to avoid sprinkler systems destroying documents in the event of a fire. Dry chemical Fire Extinguishers (Multi-Purpose ABC rated) typically contain sodium bicarbonate, or potassium bicarbonate. While these chemicals are non-hazardous pressure in the extinguishers must be released prior to disposal. For a building with a large amount of these fire extinguishers a certified safety company should be contracted to dispose of the extinguishers if they will not be re-used, or re-filled. • No dry chemical fire extinguishers were noted. Asbestos, Lead Based Paint, and Regulated Materials Assessment 7 | Page 1244 Frederick Street, Hagerstown, MD; Project No. 231228-4 Household Hazardous Waste Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) is defined by USEPA as “Leftover household products that contain corrosive, toxic, ignitable, or reactive ingredients. Products, such as paints, cleaners, oils, batteries, and pesticides that contain potentially hazardous ingredients require special care when you dispose of them”. The below listed items were identified during the visual inspection of the building, and meet the criteria for household hazardous waste.

RK&K 159 Plaza Drive Keyser, WV 26726 Re: East Water Street Streetscape Improvements Town of Smithsburg, Washington County, MD Dear Ms. Dodge: Thank you for your recent letter regarding the above-referenced project. The Maryland Historical Trust (Trust) previously commented on the proposed undertaking by letter dated 17 April 2023. We are writing to continue consultation and provide additional information in accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and the Maryland Historical Trust Act of 1985, as appropriate. As previously established, the Town of Smithsburg proposes a streetscape project along East Water Street that involves sidewalk and storm drain improvements, replacement of the water main system, and lining or replacement of the sewer main system along Water Street from Veterans Park to Smithsburg Pike (MD 64). The project is partially located within the Smithsburg Historic District (MIHP No. WA-IV-259). This historic district was determined eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places in 2004 and contains 162 properties dating to the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries that contribute to the significance of the district. Your recent letter inquired about the relevance of a stone arch culvert located in the vicinity of 23 East Water Street. We have reviewed the photographs included with your project materials and consulted existing survey documents in our archives. East Water Street was established around 1813-1814 with major alterations during the 1870s to the elevation of the road in the immediate vicinity of the culvert. It is likely that the culvert dates to one of these 18th century campaigns. Since it still retains modest integrity, the Trust believes that the stone arch culvert contributes to the significance of the historic district. Alteration of the structure in a manner inconsistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties could result in an adverse effect finding for this project. To continue the Section 106 consultation for this undertaking, please submit the following information: • Please indicate all federal or state funds/permits/involvement to confirm that the project is subject to Section 106 regulations and/or MHT Act. • Please provide a more detailed description of the proposed project and include preliminary plans when available. Be sure to highlight areas of disturbance and specify the proposed streetscape materials (i.e., sidewalk, retaining walls, vegetation removal and replacement, etc.). Please endeavor to replace areas of brick sidewalk in-kind. Rhiannon A. Dodge, P.E. East Water Street Streetscape Improvements Page 2 Once we have received the additional information requested in this letter, the Trust will continue its review of the undertaking and provide appropriate comments and recommendations, including the need for any archeological investigations. If you have questions or require further assistance, please contact Beth Cole (for archeology) at beth.cole@maryland.gov or me (for the historic built environment) at tim.tamburrino@maryland.gov. Thank you for providing us with this opportunity to comment.

Members Present: David Wiles, George Messner, Jefferson Boyer, Rachel Nichols, Rick Hemphill Staff: Washington County Department of Planning & Zoning: Meghan Jenkins, GIS Coordinator and HDC Staff member. Discussion Buildings and the power of place from the 250th Field Guide were discussed at this mee�ng. Members were prompted in varying ways to elicit responses regarding this topic. Some of these prompts included: What are some buildings or places of importance during the founding period? What Federal, State and Local proper�es are important for the public? What geographic characteris�cs are unique or important or have changed? What hasn’t been expanded upon or promoted regarding buildings/geography in the past or is unfinished research/projects? Poten�al Building/Research Projects for collabora�on: 1. Fort Frederick Focus: a. 3rd Barracks building reconstruc�on at Fort Frederick was not completed with the bicentennial. While State owned, a collabora�on with the County to complete the project or host archaeology at the fort would be beneficial for ci�zens. b. The African American schoolhouse reconstruc�on project (Nathan Williams African American Heritage Walking Tour (maryland.gov) 2. South Mountain Inn: a. This was recently purchased by the State. Determina�on of plans and whether they will come to frui�on and can be �ed to the 250th planning and tour efforts. 3. Building to the le� of the Miller House (WCHS) is up for sale and would provide addi�onal exhibit space and an anchor for celebra�ons/collec�ons on loan for the 250th. MEETING SUMMARY THE UNITED STATES 250TH | HISTORIC SUBCOMMITTEE FOR WASHINGTON COUNTY Page 2 4. Crea�on of a park, parks programming or upgrade/addi�on to parks themed with the 250th a. Weverton-Roxbury Rail Trail par�al segment opening/breaking ground during 250th celebra�ons b. Having some landscaping in County parks which mimics historic types/uses (some done at Ag Center but could expand to other parks or promote/expand ag center. c. Price’s Bridge restora�on and park crea�on similar to Wilson Bridge. Built in 1822 however it would be a great promo�onal park for the centennial if it gets added back to the roster of remaining bridges. htps://washingtoncountyhistoricaltrust.org/17-prices-bridge-1822-conococheague- creek-west-of-cearfoss-md/ or apps.mht.maryland.gov/Medusa/PDF/Washington/WA-I-291.pdf d. Poten�al Park with view of bridge at Old Forge (Strickland 20607 Old Forge, n/s old forge smaller parcel) 5. Historic Preserva�on Overlay of property on Greencastle Pike.

Recent change in ownership to a Fulton LLC from Reichard/Neikirk family. Poten�al Programming/Places/Events for collabora�on: 1. Dalghren Chapel (Frederick County) as a poten�al �e in for a driving tour or be collabora�ve with other loca�ons in adjacent coun�es. 2. MAC lab may have exhibit/poten�al loans if space available 3. Scouts of America Jamboree at Ft. Frederick or other County loca�on 4. Commemora�ve Markets (downtown example) 5. Clear Spring Historic District – Fort Frederick, George Washington ar�st prints a. Washington visited Fort Frederick at least 2 �mes as documented. The CSHD has discussed commissioning an ar�st’s rendering/print to show him walking into the fort. 6. 100’s Commemora�ve Markers wmd1776.jpg (1869×950) (rootsweb.com) a. Hundreds were formed on sections of land with 100 "taxables" (males, age 16 and older and male and female slaves, age 16 and older). Unoccupied land could be included in these 'tracts' and each was given a distinct name and had a constable assigned to keep order, much like later Sheriffs. When first established, it probably consisted of a greater area, but as time passed and the population increased, more Hundreds would be established from it and the old Hundred would decrease in size. (This may well be similar to the townships one finds in Pennsylvania today.) These Hundreds were later replaced with districts which usually were named after the town it included and/or a district number. In 1777, tax assessments were made on the value of the real and personal property of the head of the household and the "taxables" method was no longer used. The Hundreds were gradually phased out and Districts replaced them. MEETING SUMMARY THE UNITED STATES 250TH | HISTORIC SUBCOMMITTEE FOR WASHINGTON COUNTY Page 3 7.

The impacts of early land patents and poten�ally displaying those patents at an exhibit space to highlight the family names and the way they re-shaped the geography and what the land was used for. This could �e into the Clerks for the County, County Courthouse coming later, the structure of “government” at the �me. The first clerk being Otho Holland Williams (Williamsport) and where/what documents were at the �me legal documents. 9. Expand on the history of the naming of the County. Who were the par�cipants in the pe��on for naming and highlight the �ming of it being named “Washington” so early a�er the declara�on was signed. This may �e into the land patents and legal documents discussion because some records may be at Annapolis in the hall of records there as local Court House wouldn’t have some of the earliest documents. 10. Highlight the Furnaces/early industry. These were basis for large land patents and had families associated with them which are important to the County’s history. Forges were important for muni�ons in war effort. a. Mt Aetna Furnace – Hughes family (associated with Old Forge Farm) b. An�etam Furnace – also Hughes family c. Green Spring Furnace – Jacques family, house with poten�al G.W. stay 11. Ini�al buildings of note: a. Hager’s Fancy (Hager House) 1739 (City of Hagerstown) b.

Rather than focus on the date of structures, look at and promote structure types unique to the County; could pursue addi�onal Na�onal Historic Landmarks since we only have 3 a. Focus on Stone houses (some listed above are that construc�on type); discuss the layouts that made these early houses unique and the Germanic heritage they represent b.
