RIVIERA BEACH, Fla. — Plans to build a subdivision on Riviera Beach’s only public golf course have hit a snag.
The city’s planning and zoning board rejected a plan to rezone the Lone Pine Golf Club, which would have allowed developers to build a 260-home subdivision.
The zoning board’s chairman said he voted against the project because Riviera Beach does not have enough green space.
The city council is expected to make a final decision on the matter this summer.
Some neighbors who live near the golf course said a subdivision would create more traffic and lower their property values.
