Overview

Shiloh is a 24-acre subdivision in the City of Covington. READI dollars will be used for sidewalks, City water, sewer, and electric, high-speed fiber broadband, storm sewers, and paved streets with rolled curbs and gutters. The READI grant will pave the way for a forty-seven (47) lot housing development consisting of 42 single-family homes and 5 duplex housing units behind the Fountain Springs Assisted Living facility, Covington Community Center, and the Bureau of Motor Vehicles facility. The infrastructure will be completed by 2026. The single-family homes will range from $250,000 to $500,000 and we are looking to have the subdivision completed by 2028. The subdivision will also have decorative street lighting and natural gas, The 5.2-mile Covington Circle Trail is approximately 1/8 mile to the east of the subdivision and circles Covington through the City Park and will connect to the Five Crossings Park along the Wabash River to the trail on the south side of the business district. The subdivision is approximately ½ mile from the Covington Community Elementary, Middle, and High School and the City Park. This will help fill a need for housing for citizens who work in Lafayette, Terre Haute, Crawfordsville and locally. This will help attract businesses who are looking to move here because of the quality of life, recreation, education, and safety our community is known for.
