WM. PRESTON LANE, JR., GOVERNOR. 1917

WHEREAS, as a result of recent litigation in the Circuit
Court for Worcester County, it has been determined that a
controversy exists as to the proper location of said public
highway in respect to the plats of record in said County;
now therefore be it

Resolved by the General Assembly of Maryland, That the
State Roads Commission of Maryland is hereby authorized
and directed to make a re-survey of the public highway be-

limits of Ocean City and running along the Atlantic seaboard
to the Delaware-Maryland Line, and be it further

Resolved, That if such re-survey discloses that the road
is not in the proper location, then and in that case, the
State Roads Commission is authorized to effect an equitable
adjustment with the property owners whose interests have
been damaged because of the present location of said road.

Approved May 6, 1949.

route across the Bay between the Eastern and Western Shores
of Southern Maryland; and

and traffic over the Patuxent River Bridge, and would provide
