Previous development plans for the property included a proposed master-planned community with nearly 3,000 residential units, an assisted living facility, a recreational area and commercial town center.

However, the new owner of Hudson Lakes plans to use the land to raise cattle.

“Land acquisitions for agricultural purposes have become more prevalent,” Gottlieb said in a press release. “Okeechobee County has experienced a resurgence in interest from the agricultural sector, especially from the cattle industry.”
