On September 15, 2011, the Planning Division received an application for preliminary plat approval for Amended Lots 2A-4-A, 2A-5A, 3A, and 4E, Block 1, Shiloh Crossing Subdivision. The plat contains five lots on approximately 27 acres of land for commercial or industrial development. The proposed subdivision is located on the east side of South Shiloh Road, south of King Avenue West. The lots are currently vacant and south of the Shiloh Carmike Theater. The owner is Shiloh Crossing, LLC and the representing agent is Sanderson Stewart.

In accordance with state law, the City Council has 35 working days to act upon this subsequent minor preliminary plat; the 35 working day review period for the proposed plat ends on November 3, 2011. State and City subdivision regulations also require that preliminary plats be reviewed using specific criteria, as stated within this report. The City may not unreasonably restrict an owner’s ability to develop land if the subdivider provides evidence that any identified adverse effects can be mitigated. Within the 35 day review period, the City Council is required to:
1. Approve;
2. Conditionally Approve; or
3. Deny the Preliminary Plat

Should the City Council approve the preliminary plat, the subject property may develop under private ownership, resulting in additional tax revenues.
