**TDR Early Entry Bonus Deadline Extended**
New Expiration Date: March 2012

Background

The Collier County Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) Program for the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District (RFMU) was adopted into the Collier County Land Development Code (LDC) on 2/11/2004 and the TDR bonus amendments were adopted on 9/27/2004. This site provides an overview of the Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) Program.

The TDR Program within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District establishes a method for protecting and conserving the most valuable environmental land, including large connected wetland systems and significant areas of habitat for listed species, while allowing property owners of such lands to recover lost value and residential development potential through an economically viable process of transferring such rights to other more suitable lands.

Additionally, the TDR Program responds to the Collier County Growth Management Plan’s objectives in focusing growth and development towards areas where services such as sewer, water and transportation exist or can be readily provided.

The County acts as a central registry for buyers and sellers of TDR credits. In order to provide a publicly accessible web site, the Collier County TDR Sending Lands Registry* lists all the properties within the RFMU District Sending Lands which may be eligible to participate in the TDR Program.

For more detailed information regarding the TDR Program, visit the TDR Program 101 page. The page can also be accessed from the menu to the left.

*PLEASE ALLOW THE REGISTRY TIME TO LOAD
