3/9/2020 from VOF (Justin Altice):
Thank you for contacting the Virginia Outdoors Foundation (VOF) regarding the proposed Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA)
review you are undertaking for TMP 16-33B owned by James and Audrey Schmidt which has been held in open space
easement with VOF since 1993. While I can say that adding uneased acreage to a TMP that is completely under a VOF
easement is not ideal in terms of stewarding the Deed of Easement (DOE) into the future. I can also say that nothing contained
within the terms of the DOE precludes this BLA from moving forward as Scott mentioned.
will just update our records to indicate only a partial TMP easement moving forward.
3/6/2020 from Scott Clark:
On the Foxington (aka ACEA-easement) side of the line, the area shown on the BLA plat was specifically excluded from the
conservation easement. As you can see in the attached image, the area excluded from the easement is actually somewhat
larger than what they're asking to transfer. So the ACEA does not need to give permission for this BLA, as they do not hold an
easement over this portion of the property.
Also, I suspect that this means that, from Justin and VOF's point of view, no action is need either. Even if their easement covers
that entire property, nothing in their easement would prevent the landowner from adding more acreage to that property. If the
landowner wanted to add that additional acreage to the easement, that would be a separate matter, but it shouldn't hold up the
BLA.
