NJ's Farmland Preservation Program and Burlington County's Preservation Innovation Using TDR

Burlington County is New Jersey's leading agricultural county and the leader in farmland

preservation with more than 50,000 preserved acres. Burlington County has used a

combination of transfer of development rights (TDRs) and the purchase of development rights (PDR)

to preserve farland. A particular case study, Old York Village, will be explored which combines TDR

with the development of a new town.
