(2) The ordinance shall designate and show on the zoning map areas from which development rights may be transferred and areas to which such rights may be transferred and used for development. These zones may be designated as separate use districts or as overlaying other zoning districts. (3) Any city within a county that adopts an ordinance providing for the transfer of development rights, may also adopt a transfer of development rights ordinance, and the county and city by adoption of mutual provisions may provide for the transfer of development rights on land located in one to land located in another.
