The commissioners voted 4-1 on Wednesday, Sept. 21st, to purchase 65 acres on the west side of Nob Hill Road, north of Heron Bay Boulevard, for $25.41 million from the North Springs Improvement District (NSID). The city will have a 90-day due diligence period before closing. Part of the land is in Parkland and part is in Coral Springs.

ā€œOur commission is committed to developing the land in a way that ensures our unique Parkland charm and characteristics are honored and embraced,ā€ Parkland MayorĀ Rich WalkerĀ said. ā€œIt is our intention to ultimately seek a developer who will partner with us to produce the desired outcome for all of our residents.ā€

The entire Heron Bay Golf Club property totals 220 acres. The NSIDĀ purchased the full siteĀ from Canada-based ClubLink for $32 million in 2021. The NSID, a quasi-government entity that provides water and drainage services for parts of Parkland and Coral Springs, issued a request for proposals to sell the 65 acres along Nob Hill Road to a developer.

Parkland officials decided to make an offer for the site so that their city, not the NSID, would determine how the site is used in the future.

Fort Lauderdale-based Katalyst Real Estate, led by PresidentĀ Don Ginsburg, was hired by the NSID to market the property. The NSID issued a request for proposals to consider bids for the land.

Ginsburg said the NSID wants to sell commercial development on the site for a use that will draw residents from the surrounding community. The only restriction is that the land canā€™t have homes. The RFP documents mentions about 20 retailers the community would like to see there, including bowling alleys, high-end retailers and sit-down restaurants.
