RIGHT-OF-WAY TO VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY

The Chancellor reported another request by the Virginia Electric and Power Company that they
be granted a right-of-way on the Brompton property, located on the west side of U. S. Highway
Number 1. Their letter is shown as follows

Mr. Edgar E. Woodward, Bursar
Mary Washington College of the University of Virginia
Fredericksburg, Virginia
Dear Mr. Woodward

The Virginia Electric and Power Company has been requested to provide electric service
to the individual property owners of Westmont Subdivision, located in the southwest section
of the City of Fredericksburg. In order to provide the electric facilities it is desirable,
for the protection and safe operation of the line, to secure guying and tree clearing rights
along the west edge of the University of Virginia's property adjoining Beverly Drive, in
Westmont Subdivision. A plat of this area showing the desired right-of-way privileges is
attached for further identification

Inasmuch as there will not be any poles or extension of line conductors placed upon or
over the University's property, written authority will suffice for our needs in lieu of an
easement grant.

Should you desire any further information, please feel free to contact us

(Signed by Wadsworth Bugg, Jr., District Superintendent)

The area in the vicinity of the College property west of U. S. Highway No. 1 is being
developed. In order for this area to obtain electric service, it is necessary that the Virginia
Electric and Power Company be permitted to cross College property

After discussion, the Board adopted the following resolution

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia
that Mary Washington College be and is hereby authorized to grant an easement to the Virginia
Electric and Power Company in accordance with the plat dated September 30, 1958, initialed WJC,
from a point at the intersection of Greenway Drive. It is agreed by the power company that this
electric service will be relocated at the expense of the power company at any time it is mutually
agreed, within sixty days after receipt of written notice from the College
