I have scene in several instances, the limitation on development actually is a premium on the open market.any insight is appreciated Who can you recommend for environmental easements and development rights in the TDR?

For better or worse, coal has earned a reputation of being a dirty fuel and many jurisdictions have made the decision to eliminate coal burning for environmental reasons.

Legally, one is 'saturated' in that all rehabs need to cover a myriad of environmental concerns.

I love being environmentally sound, but I draw the line at an outside bathroom.

With a manufacturing facility changing the use sometimes can be tough due to environmental issues with the site from years or decades of use.Might make more sense to keep it as the same use with a new tenant unless you get a federal,state,county grants and waiver of development impact fees then it might make sense if demand is their for the changed use.If it has environmental issues sometimes the states has a clean up fund.

The good news is that the energy saved by using this stuff will offset the its environmental impact in 3-10 years depending on how much and what type you use.

I think it's not allowed in some states, and I don't like how environmentally unfriendly it apparently is, but it was essential.          

I'm actually interested in repeating this approach with future rentals, as I love to be environmentally friendly and imagine solar panels becoming more trendy in the future. 

And also unlikely that it spilled enough oil into the soil to really be an environmental problem for that small property.
