21.Following review of a development transfer ordinance as provided in section 20 of P.L.2004, c.2 (C.40:55D-156), the planning board and the governing body of the municipality shall review the development transfer ordinance and real estate market analysis at least once every five years with every second review occurring in conjunction with the review and update of the master plan of the municipality pursuant to the provisions of section 76 of P.L.1975, c.291 (C.40:55D-89).  This review shall provide for the examination of the ordinance and the real estate market analysis to determine whether the program and uses permitted in the sending zone continue to be economically viable and, if not, an update of the development transfer plan element of the master plan adopted pursuant to section 19 of P.L.1975, c.291 (C.40:55D-28) and capital improvement program adopted pursuant to section 20 of P.L.1975, c.291 (C.40:55D-29) shall be required.

If 25% of the remaining development transfer potential at the start of each five-year review period in the sending zone under the development transfer ordinance has not been transferred during the five-year period, the municipal governing body shall repeal the development transfer ordinance, including any zoning changes adopted as part of the development transfer program, within 90 days after the end of that five-year period unless the municipality meets one of the standards established pursuant to section 20 of P.L.2003, c.2 (C.40:55D-156).
