swap_horiz Transferable Development Rights (TDR)

Regulation 11.2 • Development potential of a surrendered/reserved plot, used elsewhere

north_east

Generation

Reg 11.2.4 / 11.2.5

TDR is generated when an owner surrenders reserved land (and optionally builds the amenity on it) to the Authority, in exchange for development rights as FSI — including an amenity-construction component using a cost-based formula.

south_west

Utilisation

Reg 11.2.6

TDR loaded on a receiving plot is value-adjusted for land rates:

X = Y × (Rg / Rr)

X = usable TDR on receiving plot; Y = TDR debited; Rg / Rr = ASR land rate of generating / receiving plot. Max TDR loading per road width is in Tables 6-A / 6-G.
