PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY
BOARD OF COUNTY ROAD COMMISSIONERS
(Proceedings)
1900-1933
C1281

Series Description
Record of meetings of the board of county road commissioners and after 1906 the board of county commissioners sitting as the board of county road commissioners. The board of county road commissioners, charged with handling all matters concerning roads and bridges in the county outside of incorporated towns, was created in 1900 (Ch. 346) as a body separate from the board of county commissioners. The road board lasted only six years, and in 1906 (Ch. 249) its duties and responsibilities were returned to the board of county commissioners. It designated itself as the board of county road commissioners whenever it met to consider road and bridge matters. The series consists of three volumes: 1900-1902, 1916-1927, and 1927-1933. Entries show meeting dates, members and staff present, and business transacted. Transactions through 1925 included appointments of road officials, receipts and disbursements of funds, awards of construction contracts, examination reports, maintenance and repair orders, actions on petitions, orders for placement of utility poles, recommendations for state-aid and state roads, and bridge specifications. Recorded proceedings after 1925 were limited to meeting dates, members and staff present, appointments of road officials, and orders to pay bills. The earlier two books will be included in the plats project because the records provide information about identifiable roads and bridges. The third book will be excluded because the entries are so meager.
