INTRODUCTION The Frederick County, Maryland Special Obligation Bonds (Urbana Community Development Authority) Series 1998 bonds were issued pursuant to a Trust Indenture between the county and Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (formerly Allfirst Trust Company, National Association), dated as of November 1, 1998, and a Limited Offering Memorandum for the bonds dated November 6, 1998. The Frederick County, Maryland Special Obligation Bonds (Urbana Community Development Authority) Series 2004A bonds and the Frederick County, Maryland Subordinate Special Obligation Bonds (Urbana Community Development Authority) Series 2004B bonds were issued pursuant to a Trust Indenture between the county and Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, dated as of November 1, 1998, as amended by a First Supplemental Trust Indenture, dated as of June 5, 2002, a Second Supplemental Trust Indenture, dated as of April 1, 2004, a Third Supplemental Trust Indenture, dated as of April 1, 2004, and a Limited Offering Memorandum for the bonds dated April 5, 2004. The public improvements to be built with the proceeds of the Series 1998 Bonds include the following: (a) the design, construction, and alteration of interchange improvements to I-270, Maryland Route 80, and Maryland Route 355 located within and adjacent to the authority; (b) the design, construction, and alteration of interchange improvements to state highway intersections and collector roads within the authority; and (c) the design, construction, establishment, extension, and alteration of an adequate water and sewer system, including water and sewer lines from approximately three miles north of the authority to the boundary of and through the authority. The public improvements to be built with the proceeds of the Series 2004A and B Bonds include the following: (a) two regional water storage tanks, an interim wastewater pumping station and subsequent regional wastewater pumping station within the ORI/MXD zoned property, and trunk water and sewer mains located within the PUD and ORI/MXD portions of the CDA; (b) the relocation of Maryland State Route 355; and (c) the construction of local streets, water and sewer lines, storm drain lines and structures, and other improvements located within the public rights-of-way. The Urbana Community Development Authority consists of approximately 1,378 acres of land in Frederick County, Maryland and is located generally at the confluence of Interstate 270, Maryland Route 80, and Maryland Route 355. The property in the district is under development and is approved for up to 3,484 residential units, 221,000 square feet of retail space, 361,000 square feet of office space, and 2,000,000 square feet of office/research industrial and additional retail space. Development plans contemplate three discreet projects known as Villages of Urbana, Urbana Highlands, and Bennett Creek Center. Page 3 The developers of Villages of Urbana and Bennett Creek Center are Monocacy Land Company, LLC. On October 1, 2003, Urbana Communities, LLC, a Maryland Limited Liability Company and managing member of Monocacy, acquired all of the membership interests of Fairview Properties, Inc. and the Kiplinger Washington Editors, Inc. in Monocacy, LLC. As a result of this change in ownership, Monocacy acquired title of record to all of the real estate formerly owned by the Kiplinger Washington Editors within the boundaries of the CDA. Following the completion of this transaction, Urbana Communities, LLC became the sole and managing member of Monocacy. Concurrent with the transfer of interests in Monocacy, Urbana Corporate Center, LLC, a Maryland Limited Liability Company managed and controlled by the principals of Natelli Communities, acquired title to all of the real estate formerly owned by Fairview Properties, Inc. within the boundaries of the CDA. Urbana Corporate Center has contracted with Monocacy to provide management and development services for all of the lands within the CDA that it owns. Urbana Highlands is being developed by Urbana Highlands, LLC, which is the contract purchaser of the 167 acres of land owned within the special assessment district by Route 80 Limited Partnership, which – in turn – holds the land as an investment. Pleasants reports that as of July 14, 2005, Route 80 Limited Partnership was converted from a partnership to a Maryland Limited Liability Company named Urbana Highlands Development, LLC. All partnership interests have been assigned to Urbana Highlands Investments, Inc., sole member of Urbana Highlands Development, LLC.

EXISTING OR PROJECTED TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE ISSUE : • Relocation of Walter Reed The Bethesda Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) improvement projects are intended to mitigate gridlock, improve pedestrian access and safety, and support multi-modal transportation systems around the new federally-mandated Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. One of the most noteworthy moves mandated by the 2005 BRAC law was the closure of the Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC) in Washington, D.C., with the relocation of most of its functions and personnel to the campus of the National Naval Medical Center (NNMC) in Bethesda, Montgomery County, Maryland, establishing the joint service Walter Reed National Military Medical Center (WRNMMC). The intent of consolidating these two premier institutions was to establish the modern “crown jewel” of military medical care and research combining the best of Army, Navy and Air Force practices that could serve the needs of the American military facing new kinds of catastrophic injuries in the era following September 11, 2001.

  • Maryland Historical Trust Inventory No
    Capsule Summary Inventory No. F-7-139 Monocacy Crossing Urbana Pike and Monocacy River Frederick County, MD Ca. 1750-present; 1864 Access: Public Monocacy Crossing consists of a collection of road traces and existing roads, a ferry crossing site, fording place and the current steel truss bridge which carries Maryland Route 355 across the Monocacy River. These crossings date from as early as the mid 18 century and continue to the mid 20th century for the bridge that remains in daily use. On the segment of the Monocacy that flows through the battlefield are two fording places that were known as early as the 1730s. One was located just below the mouth of Ballenger Creek and the other a short distance downstream from the present Maryland Route 355 bridge. The Ballenger Creek area ford was used by Confederate forces during the Battle of Monocacy. The other ford is recorded on land plats and the trace of the old road leading to it is still evident on the landscape. Until the 1830s, when the B&O Railroad was constructed, there was ferry service at this upper ford. The battlefield landscape is largely pastoral, with wooded hillsides and fields of hay, corn and wheat, as well as pasture lands for dairy cattle. The Monocacy River bisects the scene. The battlefield is also bisected with 1-270 a busy commuter route to Washington DC, which crosses the Monocacy approximately lA mile south of the historic crossing place. Outside the limit of the battlefield the surrounding landscape is fragmented, lost in places to intense commercial and residential development.

  • Concrete Briefs Case Studies Maryland Route 210
    Concrete Briefs Case Studies Maryland Route 210 Product: Concrete Overlay Location: Maryland Route 210 General Contractor: Concrete General, Inc. Size: 40,269 square yards Completion Date: Summer 2015 Maryland Route 210 is a busy corridor that feeds the Washington DC beltway. With heavy commercial and private use of this busy road, a durable pavement was needed that does not need constant, delay-causing repair and maintenance. To minimize construction delays and maximize project life, the Maryland State Highway Administration choose a concrete overlay as the paving solution. The section under construction was comprised of three lanes from Farmington Road to Maryland Route 373 and was completed in one month. To ensure that never less than two lanes were open at all times, the State Highway Administration made use of the shoulder for daily traffic. For a smooth surface and a quiet ride, the finished product was than diamond grinded. Because of the time-sensitive nature of this project, on- time delivery was extremely critical to this job. Chaney Enterprises was chosen impart because of our well established record of being consistently rated as the most on time ready-mix concrete producer in the region. Other concrete overlays, also known as whitetopping, that have been applied are the Maryland Route 3 and Cronson Boulevard intersection in Anne Arundel County and the Maryland Route 355 and Maryland Route 27 intersection in Montgomery County. Now that Route 210 is complete, it is the largest concrete overlay in Maryland’s history totaling 1.43 miles or 40,269 square yards. More than 27,000 vehicles drive over this section daily.
