RE: OFFICIAL DETERMINATION OF DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS - Tax Map 65,
Parcels 93A1, 94, 95, 95A & 121 (Property of S. Barkley Rives or Agnes R. Burke)
Section 10.3.1
Dear Mr. Rives and Ms. Burke:
The County Attorney and I have reviewed the title information for the above -noted
property. It is the County Attorney's advisory opinion and my official determination that
Tax Map 65, Parcel 93A1 is one parcel with one (1) development right. Tax Map 65,
Parcel 94 is comprised of three separate parcels; "X" containing 3 acres has one (1)
development right. "A" containing 1.25 acres has one (1) development right. "B"
containing 15.95 acres has five (5) development .rights within the original 10.7 -acre.
parcel. Tax Map 65, Parcel 95 is one parcel with two (2) development rights. Tax Map
65, Parcel 95A is one parcel with one (1) development right. Tax Map 65, Parcel 121 is
one parcel with five (5) development rights. The basis for this determination is
summarized as follows:
Tax Map 65, Parcel 93A1
Our records indicate Tax Map 65, Parcel 93A1 contains 3.811 acres and no dwellings.
The property is in the Kinloch Agricultural Forestal District. The most recent deed for
this property is recorded in Deed Book 1321, page 573.
The most recent deed for Tax Map 65, Parcel 93A1 recorded prior to the adoption of the
Zoning Ordinance, December 10, 1980, is recorded in Deed Book'282, page 52 and
dated January 4, 1949. This deed conveyed two contiguous tracts of land from Paul J.
Bloch and Antonie Bloch to Lewis Mahanes and Lydia H. Mahanes. One of the tracts
was described as containing 108.66 acres lying on both sides of State Highway 231.

The portion lying on the southeast side of said road contained by estimation some
fifteen acres, more or less. The deed further noted that it was distinctly understood that
said acreage is in no sense guaranteed and that this conveyance is in gross and not by
the acre. On the basis of this deed, the 108.66 -acre tract is determined to be a
parcel of record.
Deed Book 1247, page 589, dated August 14, 1992, conveyed 9.3221 acres from Lydia
H. Mahanes to Alexander L. Rives and Susan B. Rives. The deed included a
subdivision plat by Gary M. Whelan, dated July 7, 1992, that showed Parcel A
containing 3.811 acres and Parcel B containing 9.3221 acres. This is the entire portion
of the above-mentioned 108.66 -acre parcel located on the southeast side of State
Highway 231. At the time the land was divided, this 15 -acre +/- portion of the 108.6 -acre
parcel was considered to be a separate parcel of record under the Sanford v. Board of
Zoning Appeals of Albemarle County Virginia. The plat noted that Parcel "A" has one (1)
development right and four (4) development rights remain with Parcel "B." On the basis
the Sanford Case it is determined that the 15 +/- acre portion of the 108.66 -acre
tract is considered to be a parcel of record with five development rights. On the
basis of this deed, the 3.811 -acre lot has one (1) development right. This lot is
designated as Parcel 93A1 on Tax Map 65
Deed Book 1321, page 573, dated June 10, 1993, conveyed 3.811 acres from Lydia H.
Mahanes to S. Barclay Rives and Agnes Burke Rives. The property is described as that
shown as Parcel Al on the plat by Gary H. Whelan, dated July 7, .1992, of record in
Deed Book 1247, page 589. This transaction had no effect on the legal status or
development rights of Parcel 93A1.

The property is in the Kinloch Agricultural Forestal District. The most recent deed for

Gwendolen Ella A. Rives to Alexander G. B. Rives. The first contained 44 acres and is
designated on Tax Map 65 as Parcel 121. The second is described, in part as follows.
All that certain tract or parcel containing 14.95 acres as shown on a plat by O. R.

it will be seen that this acreage consists of three separate parcels of land: (1) An

one development right. Parcel "B" containing a calculated 10.7 acres has five
development rights. The O. R. Randolph plat and a portion of Tax Map 65 showing
these parcels is enclosed.

This analysis begins with Deed Book 148, page 473, dated January 20, 1912. This deed
conveyed 44 acres from the heirs of Rev. Ebenezer Boyden to G. Barclay Rives. The
property is shown on a plat recorded in Deed Book 148, page 483. This deed and plat
established this tract as a parcel of record for purposes of administering Section
10.3.
Deed Book 310, page 285, dated April 28, 1954, and summarized under the discussion
of Parcel 94, conveyed two tracts to Alexander G. B. Rives. The First is described as
containing 44 acres and as being the same land that was conveyed by the deed
recorded in Deed Book 148, page 473 and shown on a plat recorded in Deed Book 148,
page 183. This transaction had no effect on the legal status of this 44 -acre tract.
Deed Book 492, page 34, dated July 23, 1971, conveyed 1 acre from Alexander Rives
and Mary Joan Rives to Elnore Brassfield. The lot is shown on a plat by Hart and Bell,
C.L.S., dated July 2, 1971 that is recorded with this deed. It is further described as
being a portion of the property conveyed by the deed of record in Deed Book 310, page
285. This 1 -acre parcel is now designated as Parcel 121A on Tax Map 65. This
transaction reduced the parcel to 43 acres. It had no effect on the legal status of
this 44 -acre tract.
The most recent instrument for Tax Map 65, Parcel 121 recorded prior to the adoption
of the Zoning Ordinance, December 10, 1980, is recorded in Deed Book 688, page 663
and dated January 29, 1980. This is a Certificate of Plat showing the lands of Alexander
and Mary Joan Hodges Rives. The plat of William S. Roudabush, dated January 7,
1980, shows Tax Map 65, Parcel 121 containing 38.84 acres. The plat references Deed
Book 310, page 285 and Deed Book 148, page 473 (plat). This appears to be the same
property shown on the plat recorded indeed Book 148, page 483 minus the 1 -acre lot.
The discrepancy in acreage is not explained. On the basis of this plat, the 38.84 -acre
lot is determined to be a parcel of record with five (5) development rights.
Deed Book 1147, page 620, dated April 3, 1991, conveyed two parcels from Mary Joan
Rives to S. Barclay Rives and Agnes Rives. Parcel One is described as being the
38.84 -acre parcel conveyed by the deed recorded in Deed Book 688, page 664. Parcel
Two, designated as Parcel 121 A on Tax Map 65 is not a subject of this determination.
This transaction had no effect on the legal status or development rights of Parcel
121.
These parcels are entitled to the noted development rights if all other applicable
regulations can be met. These development rights are theoretical in nature but do
represent the maximum number of lots containing less than twenty one acres allowed to
be created by right. In addition Parcel 27 may create as many parcels containing a
minimum of 21 acres as it has land to create.
