Planning Commission Public Hearing August 8th – 7:00PM

The City’s Planning Commission will be holding a public hearing on Monday, August 8th at 7 pm to consider possible amendments to the City’s Land Development Regulations.

This amendment updates and expands the City’s Transferable Development Rights (TDR) program. TDRs are a tool that can be used to re-locate development potential from one part of the city to another by providing by allowing for an increase in development density allowed in one area when land is conserved elsewhere. The city adopted its TDR program in 2006, re-allocating density within the Southeast Quadrant (SEQ). These 2022 amendments propose to extent where TDRs can be “sent”, to the City’s medium and higher-density residential and mixed-use zoning districts along transit-served areas. It establishes how TDRs can be used and maximum use of TDRs in all areas where they can be received and outlines the process for severing TDRs from a property and receiving them on a property.
