Comparative Look at TDR, Subdivision Exactions, and Zoning as Environmental Preservation Panaceas: The Search for Dr. Jekyll Without Mr. Hyde

Abstract

This Article will explore the propensity of transferable development rights to create or magnify density problems in terms of both building bulk and population. The Article will also note the tendency of subdivision exactions to exclude potential community newcomers and will question whether even sensitive zoning controls within the natural zone can prevent unacceptable development pressures on an all-tooyielding environment.
