It does not matter where you start as long as you develop your Core 4.

I would suggest that you figure out what tasks you need to do as a real estate investor and make a game out of those things.For example, if you need to save money you can do something similar like you did with the Dave Ramsey course.

I am a former CFP and financial advisor who's now working as head of accounting/finance at a 500 unit multi-family operator and developer in LA who specializes in Section 8 tenants. 

What are some tasks I can do everyday to get myself one step closer to my goal? 

Sell CAP rate for experienced developers or I should say what's considered a good spread from ROI perspective.

Sewer is often not available in floodplain areas and many areas do not allow septic to be installed in floodplains, or require specific design features.Sounds like you may have a good bit of due diligence that hasn't been done yet to really be able to make a decision on if you can even develop this property.

I'd like to learn the process of developing a small modular subdivision, including costs, times, etc...Thank You

While I never bought when serving, I can assure you, managing a single property from distance should not be a deal breaker.As long as you are careful about who you rent to, and as long as you work with a real estate agent who is willing to screen tenants or a property manager, the number of tasks that require you to be on sight for a remote rental are few and far between.In fact, everything can be done remotely, and you'll want to ensure that you have a network of contractors you can call if the property needs work at any point.
