"A TDR program seeks to preserve landowners' asset value by moving the right to <br /> build a house from a location where development is prohibited (e.g., for <br /> environmental reasons) to a location where development is encouraged." <br /> The GP looks to give the full rights over Big Island land because it is the county that <br /> will decide the "environmental reasons" for incorporating land into the TDR program, <br /> which aims to give them full control over all the lands on Big Island and tell us where <br /> we can live by "prohibiting" areas from development. <br /> "In the place where development is encouraged under TDR, zoning is changed to <br /> permit more units to be built."
