FROM: John Shepherd
DATE: March 11, 2004
RE: Brian Scruby Parcel Determination
Please replace Page 4 of the letter dated March 5, 2004 with this corrected page
that shows that the properties can create a total of three, NOT two 21 -acre
parcels. I apologize for the confusion.

The Grantors also conveyed to Ralph Edwin Scruby an undivided 51 % interest in
the 56.889 acre tract.
As a result of this transaction, TM 70-33A had 69.381 acres and 3 development
rights. TM 69-39 had 25.318 acres and 5 development rights. TM 69-39A had
56.889 acres and 2 development rights.
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.
If you are aggrieved by this determination, you have a right to appeal it within thirty days
of the date notice of this determination is given, in accordance with Section 15.2-2311 of
the Code of Virginia. If you do not file a timely appeal, this determination shall be final
and unappealable. An appeal shall be taken only by filing with the Zoning Administrator
and the Board of Zoning Appeals a notice of appeal which specifies the grounds for the
appeal. An appeal application must be completed and filed along with the fee of $120.
The date notice of this determination was given is the same as the date of this letter.
If you have any questions, please contact me.

CORRECTED LETTER
RE: OFFICIAL DETERMINATION OF DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS AND PARCELS- Tax
Map 54, Parcel 72A, Tax Map 55, Parcel 14 and Tax Map 69, Parcel 39A (Property
of Brian G. Scruby) Section 10.3.1
Dear Mr. Scruby:
This official determination of development rights and parcels replaces the
determination for these parcels that is dated January 20, 2004. This letter
contains a correction on page 4. Tax Map 55, Parcel 14 has the potential to create
five lots using development rights and one additional parcel containing at least
21 acres.
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 54, Parcel 72A is a special lot appurtenant to Parcel 14 created for the
purpose of access. It has no development rights. Tax Map 55, Parcel 14 is a parcel of
record with five (5) theoretical development rights. Tax Map 69, Parcel 39A is a parcel
created in 1992 with two (2) theoretical development rights. The basis for this
determination is summarized as follows:
Tax Map 54, Parcel 72A
Our records indicate Tax Map 54, Parcel 72A contains 1.100 acres and no dwellings.
The property is not in an Agricultural Forestal District. The most recent deed for this
property is recorded in Deed Book 1868, page 598.
Deed Book 1190, page 74, dated March 6, 1991, conveyed 1.1 acres from the
Commonwealth of Virginia to F. Bradley Peyton, III, Brian G. Scruby, Ralph E. Scruby
and Francis L. Scruby. The property is shown on the revised plans for Route 64
I:\DEPT\BCZS\Determin of Parce1\2003 ACE\54-72A etc Brian Scruby.doc

between Station 1734+40 and Station 1739 + 70. The zoning ordinance in effect at the
time of this transaction required that a new development lot in the Rural Areas meet
certain requirements, including a minimum area of two acres, a building site, a
development right assigned from a lot of record and County approval. This parcel meets
none of these criteria. Rather, this transaction created this parcel as a special lot, for the
express sole purpose of access for the southern portion of Parcel 14 to Route 690. This
lot is in a class with well lots, cemetery lots and other special use lots created for a
specific limited purpose.
Deed Book 1868, page 598, dated October 20, 1999, conveyed 1.1 acres from Gertrude
Breckenridge Peyton, Francis Bradley Peyton IV, Bayne P. Russel, Scott B. Peyton,
individually and as Co -Executors of the Estate of F. Bradley Peyton III and as Trustees
of the F. Bradley Peyton Trust to Brian Scruby. The land is the same as was conveyed
by the deed in Deed Book 1190, page 74 and shown in the Highway Plat Book XI, page
238 for a further description. Based on the circumstances of the creation of this lot
it is determined that Tax Map 54, Parcel 72A was established for the sole purpose
of access to Route 690 and therefore, does not have a development right.
Tax Map 55, Parcel 14
Our records indicate Tax Map 55, Parcel 14 contains 43.510 acres and one dwelling.
The property is not in an Agricultural Forestal District. The most recent deed for this
property is recorded in Deed Book 1219, page 707.
Deed Book 135, page 149 contains an order, dated March 16, 1907 that partitions the
land of Mrs. Julia B. Shirley in accord with her will. The land is shown to contain 162
acres, 2 roods and 37 poles on a survey by J. R. Furguson that is attached to the deed.
The Court assigned Lot 2, containing 57- 50/160 acres to C. B. Shirley. This tract is now
identified as T.M. 55-14.
Deed Book 426, page 564, dated March 9, 1967, is a Certificate of a taking of 13.93
acres by the State Highway Commissioner from Clara G. Shirley. The taking was for the
acquisition of right of way for Route 64. The land taken is described as Parcel A
containing 13.69 acres and Parcel B containing 0.3 acres. Although the property was
physically separated by Route 64 as a result of this transaction, it was not legally
separated. This finding is based on the Virginia Supreme Court's decision in
Chesterfield County vChesterfield County v. Stigall, 262 Va, 697 (2001). Stigall requires, at a minimum,
that each lot separated by a public road must be identified on a recorded plat or
legal description as a separate lot to qualify as a lot of record as defined in
Section 10.3. Therefore, it is determined that Parcel 14 is a single parcel of record
with five (5) development rights.

Tax Map 69, Parcel 39A
Our records indicate Tax Map 69, Parcel 39A contains 56.889 acres and no dwellings.
The property is not in an Agricultural Forestal District. The most recent deed for this
property is recorded in Deed Book 1785, page 244.
This analysis begins with Deed Book 210, page 588, dated October 15, 1930. This deed
conveyed 7 3/4 acres from C. B. Shirley and Clara G. Shirley to Ben D. Showers. The
parcel is shown on a plat that is attached to the deed. The 7.75 -acre tract now is
comprised of Parcel 40 and 40A on Map 69. As a result of this off -conveyance, the
original Parcel 39 is determined to have been divided into three separate tracts.
The acreage of these tracts is not indicated in the deed. This is in accord with the
determination by the Zoning Administrator, dated November 18, 1992, that Parcel
39 was then found to be two tracts as follows: The western parcel containing
25.318 acres and the eastern parcel containing 126.27 acres. The 7.75 -acre parcel
is situated between these two tracts. It is on the basis of this deed that the:
western portion of Parcel 39, now comprised of T.M. 69- 39A and T.M. 70— 33A, is
determined to be a lot of record per section 10.3.
Deed Book 1274, page 463 contains a Deed of Partition and Gift that is dated
November 12, 1992. It is between Francis Shirley Scruby & Ralph Edwin Scruby, Brian
Gray Scruby and Timothy Mark Scruby & Alice Rowe Scruby, Grantors and Grantees.
The purpose of this deed is to divide the Grantors' proportional interest in a tract that
contained 151.588 acres and was identified as Tax Map 69, Parcel 39 into clearly
defined fee simple estates. The particular parcels described in this deed are shown on
an attached plat by S. L. Key, dated November 12, 1992 and revised on November 24,
1992. The parcel is divided as follows:
94.699 acres were conveyed to Timothy Mark Scruby and Alice Rowe Scruby.
The land is described as Parcel Y containing 69.381 acres (TM 70-33A) and
Residue containing 25.318 acres (TM 69-39). The plat allocated 3 development
rights to Parcel Y and noted that the residue retained 5 development rights.
56.889 acres were conveyed to Brian Gray Scruby. The land is described as
Parcel X on S.L. Key's plat. (TM 69-39A) The plat allocated 2 development rights
to Parcel X.
The Grantors conveyed to Francis Shirley Scruby an undivided 43% interest in
the 56.889 acre tract.
