Who Identifies Sending and Receiving Areas?
The Board of County Commissioners. The Board may develop a process for identifying such areas that includes public participation from the Planning Commission, Technical Advisory Committee and others. The act of identifying sending and receiving areas may create an issue of spot zoning, if the benefits of the action are not spread broadly through the community or if the program is enacted to benefit just a few landowners. The experience from Seattle is that their program needs about three to five times more potential receiving units than potential sending units to make the program work at a rate of $10,000 per unit.
