Finding
Montgomery County
[38 Pa.B. 561]
[Saturday, January 26, 2008]Under section 2002(b) of The Administrative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 572(b)), the Acting Director for the Bureau of Design, makes the following written finding:
The Department of Transportation plans to reconstruct Markley Street, SR 0202, Section 500, and Johnson Highway in the Borough of Norristown, Montgomery County. The project will require right-of-way from the following National Register eligible sites: The Theodore Roosevelt School, the Markley Street Historic District, the A. D. Eisenhower High School and the Grand View Heights Historic District.
The improvements to the Markley Street corridor will be designed to minimize the visual impact on the historic character of the historic districts. The sidewalks will be replaced in-kind with the same size, material and color. The sign at the A. D. Eisenhower High School will be replaced and appropriate vegetative landscaping will be planted. A sign will be erected on Markley Street for the Central Norristown Historic District. Other mitigation measures, as stipulated in the executed Memorandum of Agreement, will be developed during final design in consultation with the State Historic Preservation Officer, property owners and section 106 consulting parties.
The environmental, economic, social and other effects of the proposed project as enumerated in section 2002 of The Administrative Code have been considered. It has been concluded that there is no feasible and prudent alternative to the project as designed, and all reasonable steps have been taken to minimize the effect.
