RE: OFFICIAL DETERMINATION OF DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS AND PARCELS- Tax
Map 32, Parcel 7 (Property of David J. Crickenberger) Section 10.3.1
Dear Mr. Crickenberger:
The County Attorney and I have reviewed the title information for the above -noted
properties. It is the County Attorney's advisory opinion and my official determination
that Tax Map 32 Parcel 7 contains five (5) theoretical development rights. The basis for
this determination is provided below.
Our records indicate this parcel contains 123.957 acres and one dwelling. The most
recent deed for this property prior to the date of adoption of the Albemarle County
Zoning Ordinance (December 10, 1980) is found in Deed Book 532, page 155, dated
June 14, 1973, between David J. Crickenberger, AKA Jack Crickenberger & Annie
Crickenberger and Kendall K. Crickenberger & Ruby J. Crickenberger. It conveyed
3.025 divided from Parcel 7. This is now Parcel 7A
Deed Book 532, page 151, also dated June 14, 1973, is between David J.
Crickenberger, AKA Jack Crickenberger & Annie Crickenberger and Steven K.
Crickenberger & Patricia L. Crickenberger. It conveyed 3.018 divided from Parcel 7.
This is now Parcel 7B.
David Crickenberger acquired this parcel, on March 2, 1971 by deed recorded in Deed
Book 489, page 649 that described the property as a tract of land of 130 acres. Taken
together, Parcels 7A and 713 total 6.043 leaving a residue of 123.957 acres. There have
been no off -conveyances from this parcel since December 10, 1980. Therefore, Tax
Map 32, Parcel 7, containing 123.957 acres has five (5) development rights.
The parcel is 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 to the development right lots, a "parent parcel" may create as many
parcels containing a minimum of twenty one acres as it has land to make.

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 $95.
The date notice of this determination was given is the same as the date of this letter.

Sincerely,
