24VAC30-540-10: Policy

It is the policy of VDOT to convey residue and surplus land based upon highest and best use.

VDOT classifies residue and surplus land in two ways:

1. Residue and surplus land suitable for independent development;

2. Residue and surplus land assembled with adjacent properties.

Upon the approval to dispose of land, the locality in which the land is located shall be notified in writing of VDOT's interest in accordance with § 33.2-230 of the Code of Virginia once all previous landowner obligations have been satisfied.
