RE: OFFICIAL DETERMINATION OF NUMBER OF PARCELS — Section 10.3.1
Tax Map 100, Parcel 17
Dear Mr. Ray:
I have reviewed the chain of title you have submitted for the
above -noted property. It is my official determination, that this
property consists of two (2) separate parcels] which total
approximately 240 acres lying on the west and east sides of Route
631. Each of these lawfully separate parcels is entitled to
associated development rights.
This determination considered the descriptive clauses of the deed,
which delineate and enumerate the property as consisting of tract
#1 and tract #2• This consideration is based on the findings of
the Virginia Supreme Court in the case, Faison v. Union Camp 224
VA 54. It is further based on the Inglecress /Sanford case. That
case also involved dedication of fee simple right -of -way for a
public road.
The most recent deed of record as of the date of adoption of the
Zoning Ordinance is found in Deed Book 390, Page 400. It is dated
May 5, 1963 from Ruby Smith and others to the Commonwealth of
Virginia. This deed describes the following:
Conveyance of a 50 foot strip or parcel of land over the lands of
the grantors along Route 631 between Route 712 and Route 708.

thirty (30) days of the date of this letter. If you have any
