The parcel determination for the main campus is written by separate letter, dated June 29th. The County Attorney and I have reviewed the title information and plat that you have submitted for the above -noted property. This is the plat titled "Composite Survey of The Miller School of Albemarle containing 503.30 acres +/-" dated February 15, 1999. Without further information about the location of the end of State maintenance for Rt. 694 and/or some other factors, it is not appropriate at this time to determine whether Tract 1 is one or two parcels. In brief, it is our finding that this property consists of seven (7) or eight (8) separate parcels. These parcels are as follows: TAX MAP 85, PARCEL 49 containing 503.30 acres Tract 1 (3.5 acres) This tract is subdivided by Miller Lake Road (Rt. 694) which becomes a private road at some undetermined point. Once further information is obtained, we can determine if this tract is split into two (2) lots. If Tract 1 is split, it would be as follows: Lot 1A (2.78 acres) on the east side of Miller Lake Rd. — 1 development right, no additional rights. Lot 1 B (0.72 acres) on the west side — No additional development rights. This parcel may not be buildable. Tract 2 (275 acres) This tract is subdivided by Miller Lake Road (Rt. 694). Whiteside Branch runs through it and it contains a pond. The road divides it into two (2) lots. 08/20/15 2 Determination of Parcel (TM 85, P49) Lot 2A (226.40 acres) on the west side of Miller Lake Rd.— 5 development rights and 10 parcels of minimum 21 acres. Lot 2B (48.60 acres) on the east side of the road — 5 development rights and 1 parcel of minimum 21 acres. Tract 3 (0.25 acres) This tract is on the west side of Rt. 694. Lot 3 (0.25 acres) — No additional development rights. This lot may not be buildable. Tract 4 (39.5 acres) This tract is on the west side of Rt. 694 towards the end. It includes several structures, based on the composite survey. Lot 4 (39.5 acres) — 5 development rights and 1 parcel of minimum 21 acres. Tract 5 (124 acres) This tract does not appear to have state road frontage and is located in the southwestern portion of this entire property. Lot 5 (124 acres) — 5 development rights and 5 parcels of minimum 21 acres. Tract 6 (39.8 acres) This tract does not appear to have state road frontage and is located in the southern portion of this entire property. Lot 6 (39.8 acres) — 5 development rights and 1 parcel of minimum 21 acres. Tract 7 (21.25 acres) This tract does not appear to have state road frontage and is located in the northern portion of this entire property. Lot 7 (21.25 acres) — 5 development rights. In summary, this is the total number of separate parcels: 1 or 2 (Tract 1) 2 (Tract 2) 1 (Tract 3) 1 (Tract 4) 1 (Tract 5) 1 (Tract 6) 1 (Tract 7) 8 or 9 parcels Please note that the words "parcel" and "lot" are used interchangeably and are intended to carry the same meaning for the purpose of this determination. If your client intends to sell off any property separately, *This acreage is estimated. The actual number of development rights is dependent on surveyed acreage and actual building sites which comply with the zoning regulations. The number of hypothetical rights is calculated at the rate of 1 development right per 2 acres or existing lot, with five being the maximum number of development rights allowed. 08/20/15 3 Determination of Parcel (TM 85, P49) we strongly urge them to discuss with staff how it could be done in keeping with the goals and principles of the Rural Areas and the Comprehensive Plan.
