NEW BUILDING DEVELOPMENTS: WESTLAKE PLANS TO BEGIN CONSTRUCTION IN JUNE




A Circuit Court Judge ruled that Palm Beach County's development orders did NOT violate comprehensive plan policies on future land use and transportation in rural areas because those rules don't govern agricultural enclaves such as Westlake.  Recently the District Court of Appeals rejected arguments that the project would illegally create urban sprawl.

The forthcoming Westlake developmentlocated northwest of West Palm Beach, development will include:
  • 4500 homes
  • 500,000 sq ft of retail space
  • 1.5 mm sq ft of employment-center space ( traditional office space, light/clan manufacturing, medical office space)
  • 200,000 sq ft of civid space (with fire station, sheriffs station and school)
  • MAYBE: a 3,000-student college and 150-room hotel

Marketing for the property has begun.  There is a large skilled labor force in the area who may want to work closer to home when this project is move-in ready.
