Why Sell The Land?
Facilities Desperately Need Updated!
The facilities at VAC are 60+ years old and is among the oldest pools operating in Fairfax County. Selling the unused adjacent land would provide funding for updating the facilities (ie new pool house/Guardshack/Restrooms, etc. that would not be possible otherwise without taking considerable debt and threatening the long-term stability of the club. If the proposal is approved, a member committee will be formed to explore costs and guide any new facility design.
Proposal Pricing
It is expected to cost Verity Builders (VB) about $300K of investment to make the lot buildable and that is a risk that VB assumes all costs without risk to VAC. If the county denies the ability to subdivide the parcel or deem the lot unbuildable, there is no cost to VAC with this proposal. VB believes the land could potential support up to 3 houses, but has proposed a sliding scale depending on the amount of lots the parcel could be subdivided.
1
One Lot/House
If the county approves that the parcel is buildable but the land cannot be subdivided, VB proposes $400k to purchase the property
2
Two Lots/Houses
If the county approves that the parcel can support two houses and is subdividable into two lots, VB proposes $600k to purchase the property.
3
Three Lots/Houses
If the county approves that the parcel can support three houses and is subdividable into two lots, VB proposes $750k to purchase the property.
