 In April, 2007, the Johnson County Plan Commission decline to hear Indiana Land Development's (ILD) application for a preliminary master plan for the Riverwalk subdivision.   This denial requires ILD to either resubmit their subdivision plan in accordance with the procedural requirements of the Planned Unit Development process (neighborhood meetings, etc), reconfigure the subdivision as smaller than 100 acres, or abandon the project.    We are appreciative of Johnson County's concern over the potential impact of Riverwalk on our neighborhood and its willingness to hold ILD to the rules that it has established.
  

 In the event you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
