Officials in Delray Beach have agreed to convert nine acres of a monastery into a community of single-family homes in the future.
Nuns at Christ the King Monastery, located near Sherwood Park and Hamlet Country Club, wish to sell a portion of their land to developers in order to cut back on maintenance fees. The plan was approved by city commissioners this week, and the area will be rezoned to accommodate the new homes in Delray Beach. For now, it is unknown what type of houses developers will construct or what the prices will be for the properties.
Neighbors are now worried that zoning for the properties may cause traffic after proposals of an entrance into the community. They are also concerned that the zoning won’t match their neighborhoods. An agreement between board members and residents should be made sometime next month.
