DATE: July 18, 2024
RE: Time Extension Requests for Highland Farms
Items #1 through #4 of today’s agenda are requests for time extensions for the Highland Farms
Preliminary Plats 1 through 4, respectively.
The Prattville Subdivision Regulations state:
The approval of a Preliminary Plat shall be effective for a period of 18 months from the date
that the plat was approved by the Planning Commission, at the end of which time the
applicant must have submitted a Final Plat for approval. If the subdivision is under active
construction, the Planning Director may authorize a one-time extension of no more than 180
days, otherwise, the applicant may request an extension of no more than 180 days at a time
from the Planning Commission. The request must appear before the Planning Commission
prior to the end of the approval period. If the approval time is lapsed, then preliminary
approval shall be null and void, and the applicant must submit a new Preliminary Plat subject
to current ordinances and regulations. It is the responsibility of the subdivider to request any
needed extensions (§ 3.4 (7)).
Highland Farms Preliminary Plats 1 through 4 were approved at the March 2, 2023, Planning
Commission meeting, and the 18-month approval period will end August 2, 2024.
Currently, Plats 1 and 2 are under construction, and Plats 3 and 4 are scheduled for future
construction. The developer is requesting a time extension on all four plats. The Planning
Commission may authorize a time extension of no more than 180 days. If the preliminary plats are
allowed to expire, the developer will need to begin the preliminary plat process again, submitting
new applications, fees, and plats that are compliant with the current subdivision regulations.
Memo to Planning Commission, Highland Farms Page 2 July 18, 2024
If the Planning Commission chooses to extend the approval by the full 180 days (from the August 2,
2024 end date), the new approval end date would be January 29, 2025. The developer must then
have submitted a final plat for approval or receive another time extension before the new date, or the
preliminary plat approval(s) would lapse.
The following table may help for consideration of possible extension time periods:
As a reminder, final plats must be in substantial compliance with the approved preliminary plat in
order to be approved (Subdivision Regulations § 3.7 (5) (a)).
Day Extension (from 8/2/2024) End Date

Scott,
Below is PH1-4 timing as of the latest schedule and issues for the delay of PH1 construction.
PH1: We anticipate final plat recording around 2/1-2/15/25. If this happens, our delivery schedule will put us delivery
PH2-4 per the below.
PH2: Final plat recording: 11/15/25
PH3: Final plat recording: 11/15/26
PH4: Final plat recording: 8/15/27
Challenges that contributed to delay of PH1 progress:
• Church Parcel and boundary dispute with neighboring property owner.
• Weather/Deep sewer installation slower than anticipated - 14-16’ deep
• Engineering revisions and field modifications
• Weather delay
Regarding the median opening, we anticipate that occurring in September based on feedback from our contractor.
I also have attached our current PH1 construction schedule.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need anything further.
Thank you,
Chloe Kelly
