14-212 Family subdivisions; conditions of approval.
Each approval of a plat for a family subdivision shall be subject to the following conditions:
A. No lot may be created by family subdivision unless it has been owned by the current owner or a member of his
or her immediate family for at least four (4) consecutive years immediately preceding the date the family
subdivision plat is submitted under section 14-209. For the purposes of this section, and subject to approval by the
county attorney:
1. Land owned as part of a trust for estate planning purposes may be considered to be owned by the current
owner or a member of his or her immediate family upon consideration of the following factors: (i) the title
to the real property is in the name of one or more of the trustees; (ii) if there is more than one trustee, the
intended grantee is a qualifying member of each trustee's immediate family; (iii) if there is more than one
trustee, all of the trustees agree in writing to the family subdivision; (iv) under the trust instrument, the
trustee(s) retain complete control over the trust assets; and (v) the trust instrument allows the trustee(s) to
convey real property.
2. A lot created by family subdivision may be conveyed to the custodian of a qualifying member of the
immediate family under the Virginia Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (Virginia Code § 64.2-1900 et seq.)
B. No lot created by the family subdivision, including the residue, may be transferred, except by devise, descent or
operation of law, to a person other than an eligible member of the immediate family of the subdivider, for a period
of four (4) years after the date of recordation of the plat, except for purposes of securing any purchase money
and/or construction loan, including bona fide refinancing, or if the lending institution requires in writing that the
spouse of the member of the immediate family be a co -grantee and co-owner of the lot. The subdivider shall place
a restrictive covenant on the lots created by the family subdivision prohibiting the transfer of the lots so created to
a person who is not a member of the immediate family for the retention period after the date of recordation. The
restrictive covenant shall be subject to review and approval by the county attorney before it is recorded. If the lot
created is conveyed back to the grantor during the retention period, it shall be recombined with the parent lot
within six (6) months after such conveyance and no building permits shall be issued for the lots until they are
recombined.
C. The entrance of the principal means of access for each lot onto any public street shall comply with Virginia
Department of Transportation standards and be approved by the Virginia Department of Transportation.
D. The following note shall be added to each plat for a family subdivision: "No lot shown on this family
subdivision plat may be sold or conveyed to a person other than an eligible `member of the immediate family,' as
that term is defined in Chapter 14 of the Albemarle County Code, for a period of four (4) years after the date of
recordation of this plat except as authorized by section 14-212(A) of the Albemarle County Code. If any lot created
by the recordation of this plat is conveyed back to the grantor during the four (4) year period, it shall be
recombined with the parent lot within six (6) months after such conveyance."
