[RP TownTalk] Fwd: new sign in front of the Cafritz property on Rt. 1

[ABragg7393 at aol.com]

Hey, Guy,  You were the Mayor when the sign went up (see info  below).  I 
know you didn't put it in the wrong place.  What's  your take?  Tell us where 
our Northern boundary is, please.

OK,
so, how much of the Cafritz property belongs to College Park?
Does anybody  know?
 
How is this going to effect the proposed development?
can we get a straigt answer for grownups?

Well, this  news is very disturbing to me.

I was assured by a town official that  the sign removal and replacement by 
College Park were unrelated, when in fact  they were.

I sit and wonder why we are not being informed of the  facts?

What implications does this  portend?

Actually the College Park city limits  go further south to the south side 
of the roadway entering the Metro property,  just north of the roadway into 
the regional postal facility.  This past  spring College Park purchased and 
installed new city gateway signs at all  entrances to the City of College 
Park.  We, at that time double checked  the boundary lines with the actual sign 
locations.  We learned that the  old Riverdale sign was over 50 yards 
inside of College Park territory.   Therefore, I contacted Riverdale Park about 
them removing their sign, which  was done.  Our new gateway sign is 100% new, 
concrete footing, metal post  and sign.  The old Riverdale Park sign is in 
Riverdale somewhere.   We would not remove another town’s sign without first 
talking to them.   We are neighbors and cooperate with our neighbors.
