Program Overview
Redmond's Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) program allows property
owners in environmentally or historically significant areas to transfer
their right to develop to property owners in areas of Redmond more
suitable for urban development. A successful transaction benefits the
seller, who sells the development rights for financial considerations,
the buyer, who is able to use the TDR on his/her property, and the
public at large, which gains a permanent open space, recreation area, or
historically significant site.
The Department of Community, Trade, and Economic Development's (now Department of Commerce) fall 2008 About Growth publication highlights TDR programs in Redmond and other parts of Puget Sound.
