A subdivision is the process of creating one or more new lots from an existing parcel. A subdivision application is needed when an applicant wants to subdivide, change the boundaries, or place easements on one or more parcels of land. The subdivision review process is designed to provide a means by which the numerous reviews and recommendations of all applicable Albemarle County, State and Federal agencies can be coordinated. For certain types of residential development, such as townhomes and attached single family residential units, the review process is integrated with the Site Plan review process.

• Preliminary Subdivision Applications are reviewed by the Site Review Committee.

• All other subdivision application types are subject to administrative reviews with applicable staff members.
