Final Plat Comments (Rural Areas Planner and County Attorney):
Conservation Easement:
7. The draft conservation deed of easement provided by the applicants was forwarded to the County Attorney’s
Office for their review. The County Attorney’s office had a more recent version of the conservation deed of
easement. Once the additional information requested below is provided the County Attorney’s office will
complete their review of the proposed deed and respond in detail about edits that need to be made. The deed
of easement must be completed and signed by all the parties before the final plat can be signed. (Eventually,
once the final plat and deed of easement have been signed, both will need to be recorded together.).
FINAL Rev. 1: Comment not fully addressed. The deed of easement must be completed and signed by all
parties (application, Public Recreational Facilities Authority Chair, and the agent for the Board of
Supervisors) before the final plat can be signed. (Eventually, once the final plat and deed of easement have
been signed, both will need to be recorded together/sequentially). See the revised attached conservation
deed.
FINAL Rev. 2: Comment not fully addressed. Address the following:
· The draft deed of easement for the preservation tract has been reviewed, but is not yet complete or
approved by the County Attorney’s Office. The legal description of the property in the deed needs to
refer to the correct title of the final plat.
· Review of any corrections or changes to the deed of easement can continue independent of final-plat
resubmittals. However, in the end, the plat and the deed must have consistent references (as noted
above) and will likely be approved and signed at approximately the same time, rather than approving
the deed significantly ahead of the plat.FINAL Rev.3: Comment not fully addressed. Address the
following:
· On the first page the year should be changed from 2016 to 2017.
· Revise the property description so that it correctly describes plat, including the correct lots specified
on this plat and the date and revision information for the last version of the plat before recordation.
It appears that the document was not completely updated when the lots specified in the division
were changed.
· Review of this document is still in process and additional comments will be forwarded when they are
available.
FINAL Rev.4: Condition not yet fully addressed. Address the following:
· Remove the “Draft: 12/10/16” in the upper right corner of the document.
· Have the deed of easement signed by the owner’s representative and notarized.
· Submit the signed and notarized document to the County for the Community Development and
PRFA signatures.
· This deed must be recorded with the plat.
FINAL Rev.5: Comment not fully addressed. Provide a revised County signature page for the deed
of easement for the preservation tract that addresses the following:
a) The “County of Albemarle, Virginia” signature should be for Jeffrey B. Richardson and not
Mark B. Graham.
b) The title for Jeffrey B. Richardson should be County Executive.
c) After new signature page is provided the document will be forwarded for County signatures.
d) This deed must be recorded with the plat.

County Attorney. The County Attorney’s approval of the deeds is required before this subdivision plat will be
approved. Also, revise the note for the new 20’ access easement to state that it is new and who the access
easement is for.
