Workshop to explain transfer of development rights on land

The Milton Community Development Department has scheduled a seminar that will explain how large landowners can transfer the rights to development from their land to a different parcel, a system that protects large swaths of land while allowing smart growth and density in areas defined by the community.

The workshop is at 5 p.m., Jan. 29 at City Hall Council Chambers, 13000 Deerfield Parkway Suite 107 E.
