Stafford mulls expansion of TDR program to entire county, extends timeline to 2020

STAFFORD -- The Board of Supervisors is considering expanding upon the Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) Program to encourage development in targeted growth areas. 

A TDR is when development rights in more rural areas (sending areas) are transferred to more urban and growing areas in the county (receiving areas). This acts as a conservation method for landowners while boosting urban growth. 

TDRs are not a new concept in Stafford. The existing program, established in 2015, operates mainly in the Aquia District. Now, the Board is looking to potentially expand the concept throughout the county.
