Landscapes documented through the CLI are those that individually meet criteria set forth in the National Register of Historic Places such as historic sites, historic designed landscapes, and historic vernacular landscapes or those that are contributing elements of properties that meet the criteria. In addition, landscapes that are managed as cultural resources because of law, policy, or decisions reached through the park planning process even though they do not meet the National Register criteria, are also included in the CLI. The CLI serves three major purposes. First, it provides the means to describe cultural landscapes on an individual or collective basis at the park, regional, or service-wide level. Secondly, it provides a platform to share information about cultural landscapes across programmatic areas and concerns and to integrate related data about these resources into park management. Thirdly, it provides an analytical tool to judge accomplishment and accountability. The legislative, regulatory, and policy direction for conducting the CLI include: National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (16 USC 470h-2(a)(1)).

The roof is gone and parts of the walls have collapsed, but the walls have been stabilized and re-pointed and a metal cap placed over top of the walls.

  • Transportation Compared
    Transportation OverviewElement Frederick’s strategic location within the larger Baltimore-Washington metropolitan region is an asset for the community’s economy, yet entails transportation challenges. The city’s placement at the confluence of two major interstates (I-270 and I-70) and the presence of other major US and State highways (US 15, US 40, US 340, MD 355 and MD 26) has contributed to Frederick’s growth as a regional center, but has placed increased traffic demands on the City. The bedrock of a city’s character is its transportation infrastructure. How people move dictates whether a city needs a redundant system of roadways, sidewalks, bicycle facilities, transit service, or parking, and the relationship to land uses and the built environment. As a result, a well-planned transportation system is critical to a local as well as regional economic stability and growth. [pop-out box] Transportation and land-use: two sides of the same coin The City of Frederick and this Plan describe transportation and land-use in separate chapters, but on the ground they are inseparable. Each decision about what sort of land-use the City should have, and each dollar spent on a given transportation mode, subtly influences how people travel and what sorts of places thrive and grow. The basic link of density and travel A place that has a dense mix of homes, businesses, and services works best when people move slowly through it on foot or bike, and those places can only form when there is significant investment in walking and bicycling. A place that is low-density and has little or no mixing of homes, businesses, and services works best when people move fast through it in a car, and those places can only function when there is significant investment in roads and parking.

In 2020, our world changed as a new and unprecedented challenge – the coronavirus health pandemic – made our responsibility to protect health and well-being prominent and clear. Our Division of Fire & Rescue Services staff stepped up and met the challenge. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, they have continued to deliver excellent service to the people who live and work in our community. In doing so, the men and women in our Division of Fire and Rescue Services put themselves in harm’s way. They are truly heroes on the front line of the battle against the virus. To meet the needs of a growing community, we graduated three firefighter recruit classes in 2020. In September, Frederick County was awarded a $5.6 million SAFER grant, which will allow us to fully staff the new Northgate Fire Station when it opens and expand daytime staffing to 24/7 coverage in Thurmont.
