Mr. Richard L. McDonald

P.O. Box 399
Angleton, TX 77515
Dear Mr. McDonald:
The Brazosport Chamber of Commerce wishes to join with the cities of Freeport,
Clute, Richwood and Angleton as well as the Angleton Chamber of Commerce and the
Brazoria County Commissioners Court in requesting the designation of current
State Highway 227 be changed to Alternate State Highway 288.
The present designation has created problems due to the previous change from SH 288
and because of.other roads with the numerals 227. This problem develops confusion
not only for local residents and businesses but to visitors who arc unfamiliar
with the area.
i
Thank you for your consideration of this area request. If we can assist you in
any way, please let us know.
Sincer ly,
G jL�Q�IG `��
