TDRs to save rural land & prevent more sprawl - Hearing on Tues.
(Emails & Calls to Council Members can be made Sun. & Mon. - see below)

CB-80-2008 will be heard Tuesday, November 18th at 10:00AM at the
County Council's hearing room at the County Administration Building
(CAB) (301) 952-3600. It seeks to save rural land and prevent more
suburban sprawl. TDRs (Transfer Development Rights) are used in
several other counties successfully
(http://sprawlhurtsusall.com/supporting-information/acres-of-farmland-preserved-by-tdrs-already/).
You can read the bill on this PDF
(http://sprawlhurtsusall.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/cb-80-2008-2-tdr-bill.pdf).
A FAQ about TDRs is here
(http://sprawlhurtsusall.com/what-is-a-tdr/frequently-asked-questions/).
Contact council members to support this bill
(http://sprawlhurtsusall.com/organizer-information/county-council/).
This bill will discourage development in our rural tier and encourage
development where there is public transportation. What's good for the
environment is good for us all - it's the web of life. Act & pass it
on.
