Subdivision moves forward

A 40-acre subdivision south of Island Lake known as Meadows Edge is closer to becoming a reality.

The Shelton City Council on Feb. 20 gave preliminary approval to the final plat for the subdivision, which will host 36 residential lots. The council can vote for final approval at its regular meeting Tuesday evening.

MTT Development of Seattle is the owner of the development, a square, wooded property that borders a corner of the city’s Huff’n’Puff Trail and is north of the Shelton Springs Subdivision and south of Frog Acres. The land was in the city’s Urban Growth Area.
