TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
It has come to my immediate attention that there seems
to be a growing controversy over the Placement of a sign
on Qo rgetown Road indicating the entrance to Old Dominion
Day Care Center.
This very attractive sign does not create an eyesore
or detract from the appearance of the neighborhood. The
sign is needed for directions as the building cannot be seen
from the road. The parents who take their children to the
school on a daily basis obviously do not need the sign for
directions, but there are certain circumstances which arise
in which such a directional sian is needed. One recent
example is when I was out of town and my child became sick
it became necessary for the school to call my mother to pick
up the child. Not familiar with the area , she drove around
the apartments , Hydraulic Road and Georgetown Road for quite
some time before finally stumbling onto the entrance to the
school . Also very frequently the school invites guest speakers
who also find it difficult to determine the location of the school.
Please consider these circumstances when granting or denying
placement of the Old Dominion Day School sign.

Dear Glenna,
Enclosed is a copy of the agreement for placing the sign
for OLD DOMINION DAY SCHOOL on the property owned by Charles { il
Rotgin.
Also, I have enclosed a letter from a parent favoring the
placement of the sign on Georgetown Road. With a request to
my parents at the day school, I am sure that many more such
requests favoring the sign could be submitted. If you think
that would be helpful, I will be glad to make such a request
of the day school 15arents.
Thanks for all the help thus far. I realize that you
often have a thankless task. And I commend you for the pleasant
attitude you demonstrate to the general public.
Cordially,

This confirms our oral agreement that upon
request we will promptly remove the Old Dominion
Day School sign from its proposed location aio.y
Georgetown Road at the proposed Barclay Place
entrance. We understand that this property
belongs to Charles M. Rotgin, Jr. , et. al. , and
the sign will be placed there at his pleasure.

To: The Zoning Appeals Board
We, the undersigned parents, petition the Zoning Appeals Board to
grant permission to the owners of Old Dominion Day School to retain their
sign at the entrance on Georgetown Road. Due to the location of the
facility, the sign is a necessity for finding the school. As parents,
we are concerned that friends and relatives be able to locate the school
in case of an emergency, or in the case that we are unable to pick up or
deliver our children to the school.
