Process for Using Transferable Development Credits
(1)
A person who proposes to use TDCs within a receiving area shall submit an application to the county accompanied by TDC certificates sufficient to permit the proposed development.(2)
If TDCs are used in a rural residential receiving area under the provisions of OAR 660-029-0080 (Designation of Receiving Areas)(1), then the lot or parcel may be divided to site the additional dwelling or dwellings. The lots or parcels resulting from the division must have sufficient area within the receiving area for the dwelling and all supporting infrastructure. New lots or parcels may be as small as five acres in all cases. New lots or parcels may be smaller than five acres if the proposed size is equal to or greater than the average size of lots and parcels within exception areas within one-half mile of the edge of the subject property. The new lots or parcels may not be smaller than two acres in any case.(3)
If an applicant proposes to use a TDC on a lot or parcel that is partially within the receiving area and partially outside of the receiving area, then the dwelling and all supporting infrastructure authorized by the TDC must be located entirely within the receiving area.(4)
The county shall evaluate the application based on the locally-adopted TDC ordinance and the provisions of this division in order to determine the type and number of credits that are required to be submitted. Based on this evaluation, the county may preliminarily approve the application and shall request verification from the department of the type and number of credits that belong to the applicant, using an online form provided by the department.(5)
The department shall verify the type and number of credits that belong to the applicant.(6)
Following department verification, the county may approve the application and shall notify the department within 30 days of any approval.
