Lennar Homes looking to take away another Golf Course!

If you didn’t know that Lennar is looking to build in Woodmont. I’m here to tell you that they are.

Let me first tell you, I live in Woodmont and more precisely I live on the green. By that I mean I live right in front of on of the holes on the 2nd of the two course they have. My back yard is great, LOVE it and the main reason I bought this particular home.

Apparently the golf course hasn’t been doing so well, they are been losing there clients, I think its due to the bad management they have, but that is my personal opinion. So here we are with a predicament. Since he is doing so bad he wants to sell toLennar Homes. Lennar wants only one course of the Woodmont Country Club, but on this course they are looking to build 255 homes, making about 5 communities. I am directly affected by this. That means taking away that green behind and putting homes there.

Now that makes me very angry.Lennar will be build on Colony West Country clublocated off of Commercial and Pine Island. Then there is Sabal Palmscountry club that closed down several years ago off of Commercial and Rock Island. You would think they could build there since its abanoded. But no they want to build on an Active Golf course.

On top of all that, with the inventory still out there, with all the foreclosure that is predicted to happen why in the world would a developer want to start building more homes with the possiblity of not being able to sell them.

They are looking to build homes with Square footage of 2500 to 3500 sq ft. with a price range of $250,000 to $500,000. Are they really that serious? We are trying to sell what we got and they just want to dump so much more on top of it!!!

Now what has also been said is that, if this land does not sell to Lennarthat the ownersof the golf course is going to let it run down causing no other then to sell. But then who do they sell to and when will that happen?

I don’t want homes behind me, but at the same time I don’t want the golf course to look like crap. So what to do, what to do?

The City of Tamarac will be holding a public hearing in regards to the land change. So I will be attending that meeting.  Will you be there? April 14 and 6pm
