In January of 2002, the County approved the creation of a
1.0317-acre lot as a family transfer. This lot is located
off a private easement (Morris Lake Drive) that connects to
Marsh Road (Route 17) in the Lee Magisterial District (PIN
#7816-54-0382-000). The attached vicinity map shows the
location of this parcel. The lot was conveyed to Frank Jay
Krick and Jennifer Ritchie Krick by Frank’s grandparents,
John and Evelyn James, and the conveyance included the
affidavit requiring that the grantee not transfer the
property to a non-immediate family member for ten (10)
years. In June of 2005, the property was conveyed to
Jennifer Ritchie Krick by Frank Jay Krick.
Jennifer R. Hoysa (Krick) is now requesting that the Board
of Supervisors reduce the 10-year time requirement of
Section 2-39.3.A.3 of the Subdivision Ordinance, so that she
will not have to hold the property for ten (10) years before
voluntarily transferring the property. Section 2-39.3A.15 of
the Subdivision Ordinance states that, if the Board of
Supervisors finds that an extraordinary hardship is caused
by the ten (10) year restriction, it may reduce the time
period to alleviate the hardship. If approved, Mrs. Hoysa
would have held the property for seven (7) years.
The applicant has encountered financial hardship and can no
longer sustain the financial impacts. Mrs. Hoysa needs to
sell the property in order to alleviate that hardship. Mrs.
Hoysa’s letter provided under separate cover to the Board of
Supervisors requests the reduction, along with the specific
justification. |
