Board of Visitors minutes :: June 1, 1962 :: University of Virginia Library

The Chancellor advised the Board that the authorities of Mary Washington College had been
requested by The Sunshine Laundry, owner of a parcel of real estate situated on the south side of
William Street, in the City of Fredericksburg, Virginia, across from lands owned by the College,
to waive or consent to modify a restrictive covenant applicable to The Sunshine Laundry's property,
to the effect that there shall not be constructed thereon any buildings or structures other than

building, garden type on the property. The College authorities are willing to allow this use of
the property owned by The Sunshine Laundry
