There is no development. What are they trying to do, just get a subdivision approval so they can land bank and sell?
This seems ridiculous to me and now way I'd approve this.
Or is sub-division more liberal and means essential parceling-out the land into say 3-4 parcels and then selling to individual developers? I would be in favor of that action.
Sorry, I'm a novice when it comes to zoning... Help appreciated.

Currently, the land is one parcel. If you look at the plans, all they are doing are subdividing out a small strip on the east end by the railroad tracks as "Tract A," which will be used as "open space and landscaping." Could be different reasons why they need to do this, but it's mostly likely to facilitate development, rather than forestall it.
As another example, there is a similar process going on right now for the Monti's lot where One Hundred Mill is supposed to go. There are currently several different tax parcels of land where the restaurant and parking lot are. The developer, however, is going through the approval process to subdivide the land so there are only two parcels: one where the historic portion of the Hayden House that is going to be preserved will be, and one for all the rest where the new development will be.
