The Planned Development District (PDD) allows for mixture of residential, commercial, office, industrial uses on a single site provided a written narrative and conceptual plan are submitted. In parallel, an application was also submitted to amend the future land use map of the Imagine 2040 Comprehensive Plan from Rural to Rural Communities .

If approved, the future land use would support single-family residential developments, including minor and major subdivisions, with lot sizes greater than 14,500 square foot or with a maximum of 3 net units per acre. The Permenter family currently owns the land, but the development agreement is including Pulte Homes who is expected to be the builder of this new home community The timing for development for the Village at Highway 57 has not yet been announced.
