Milton to Teach Large Land Owners About Development Rights

The city will hold the Transfer of Development Rights workshop to educate the equestrian community and land owners with more than 5 acres of property.

Do you own a horse farm or large plot of land in Milton?

Then you'll want to attend a Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) workshop Tuesday, Jan. 29 at 5 p.m. The City of Milton Community Development Department is holding the workshop to educate the equestrian community and land owners of more than five acres about the program. 

The open public meeting will take place in City Council Chambers of City Hall. (Use this map of City Hall to find the room.)

The program allows a landowner to transfer the rights to development from his parcel to increase the development rights on a different parcel of land. In effect, TDRs protect large swaths of land from future development while guiding smart growth and density in areas defined by the community.
