Dedication
Klingle Road was conveyed to the District in
1885 for the purpose of a public road and has served that purpose
admirably for over a century.
The City legally is obligated to maintain
all public roads. Klingle Road has been neglected for too long.
Klingle Road should be repaired and maintained as part of D.C.'s
existing transportation infrastructure.
Conveyance of Klingle Road to the
District of Columbia in 1885
We hereby transfer and convey to the
Commissions of the District of Columbia and their successor in office forever,
for the purpose of a public highway on Rock Creek known as
Klingle's Ford, a tract of land fifty (50) feet wide, to be known as
"Klingle Road" with courses and distances as shown on the
above plot.
