The homebuilder has decided to withdraw a proposal to build up to 170 homes on the Seminole, Fla., property in the wake of a report by county staff that cited environmental concerns, adverse impacts on the surrounding neighbors, and the loss of a large, undeveloped parcel as reasons for county commissioners to reject the plan. A bank foreclosed on the property in 2009 and has continued to operate it as a golf course.

A group of residents in Seminole, Fla., formed a group called “Save The Tides Golf Course,” in an effort to prevent the 72-hole golf course from being redeveloped by homebuilder Taylor Morrison. The group claims to have collected over 10,000 signatures to save the property, which is currently bank-owned by Wells Fargo.
