  1. Purpose of TDR Market Analysis • To determine whether and where there is demand for development • over and above what’s permitted by baseline zoning • How that demand can be harnessed to conserve land • While providing an economic incentive for desired development

  2. Potential Receiving Areas Analyzed • Bayview Ridge Urban Growth Area • City of Burlington • Rural Upzones

  3. Bayview Ridge Urban Growth Area • Bonus units of residential density in BR-R (from 4 to 6du/a) • Rezones from BR-Urban Reserve to BR-Residential • Industrial Development

  4. City of Burlington • Additional residential development in Commercial/Mixed Use zones • Opportunities for additional Commercial intensity

  5. Rural Upzones • CPAs/Rezones resulting in additional residential development potential • For example: from Rural Reserve (1 du/10 acres) to Rural Intermediate (1 du/2.5 acres, or 4 du/10 acres)

  6. Preliminary conclusions • In short-term (1-5 years), development not likely to generate significant number of TDR transactions. • Demand down due to Great Recession • Significant residential zoning exists in Burlington and Bayview Ridge UGA

  7. Nearest opportunities • The nearest-term TDR market opportunities may be for additional units of residential density in: • The Bayview Ridge Residential (BR-R) zone, and • Certain Mixed Use (Commercial/Residential) zones in Burlington.

  8. Medium to long-term • In the medium to long-term (5 – 20 years), consistent with the County’s and Burlington’s GMA planning horizons, more market potential will appear.

  9. Medium to long-term • As existing capacity in the BR-R zone and Burlington Mixed Use Zones is used up, • And demand emerges to rezone additional land to or intensity those zones • Skagit County and Burlington could require TDR purchase for future rezones or intensification

  10. Rural upzones • Few Rural Upzone proposals are considered/approved by County each year • But, there may be significant TDR purchasing power associated with upzones which create high-value rural lots. • This is another potential opportunity for a TDR purchase requirement.

  11. Bayview Ridge Industrial • Given the information currently available, there does not appear to be a ready opportunity to link TDR to Industrial development at Bayview Ridge

  12. Burlington Commercial • May be TDR opportunity in Burlington if city is willing to consider a Floor to Area Ratio (FAR) limit on commercial intensity • Base FAR limit could be exceeded with a TDR purchase

  13. Final phase of market analysis • Will draw on preliminary findings • Focus analysis on those areas and issues most useful in determining TDR feasibility and implementation in Skagit County

  14. More precise data on: • Developer ability-to-pay for TDR in receiving areas • Estimated value of residential development rights in various potential sending site zones, and • Recommended exchange ratios to make TDR transactions viable in the marketplace.

  15. Transactions mechanisms • Recommendations on what type of “transaction mechanisms” most viable in Skagit County given market conditions and desire to complement Farmland Legacy Program: • Simple buyer-seller • TDR bank • Density credit fees

  16. Bonus densities at Bayview Ridge • Final phase of market analysis will provide essential market data for implementing bonus density provisions in BVR subarea plan and PUD ordinance
