If a reasonable economic use of a lot cannot exist by means of either subsection D.1 or D.2 of this section, then the planning director is authorized, using Review Process II.C, to administratively grant a transfer of development rights in addition to subsections D.1 or D.2 of this section, or in lieu of them. For purposes of this section, "transfer of development rights (TDR)"means that the city severs the development rights from the fee interest and permits the owner of the restricted property to either transfer an authorized portion of the development rights in that property to another lot owned by the restricted party in accordance with the following provisions, or permits the owner of the restricted property to sell an authorized portion of the rights to owners of land who can use the authorized development rights in accordance with the following: a. R-S, R-S-1, R-1 and R-2 Zones: The number of dwelling units allowed under a reasonable use determination for any residential development may be transferred to an R- S, R-S-1, R-1 or R-2 zone provided that the number of dwelling units allowed to be transferred to the receiving site shall not exceed the lesser of: i. The number of dwelling units which the planning director determines to be the minimum necessary to allow for reasonable economic use of the restricted property, or ii. Twenty percent more dwelling units than would be permitted on the receiving site without the transfer of development rights. In approving a transfer of development rights to the receiving site in the R-S, R-S-1, R-1, or R-2 zone, the planning director shall have the authority to allow for a reduction of the minimum lot area allowed by the zone in which the receiving site is located by not more than twenty percent. All such lots shall have a minimum lot width of fifty feet. All dwelling units on such lots shall be single-family dwellings. b. R-1(A) and R-2(A) Zones. The amount of development transferred to the receiving lot shall not result in a development density which exceeds the maximum permitted in the use zone of the receiving lot without the transferred development by more than twenty-five percent. All other requirements of the use zone in which the receiving lot is located shall apply to the transferred development. c. Multiple-Family Zones. The amount of development transferred to the receiving lot shall be limited only by all other requirements of this title applicable to the use zone in which the receiving lot is located(building height, off-street parking, setbacks, multiple- family development standards, etc.), excluding maximum permitted density. 36
