"We are planning to begin site work in early 2004, and the first homes are expected to be ready for occupancy by late 2004," said Sam Gershwin, president of Westminster Communities.

"These will be very desirable communities in an area noted for its quality of life. Each community is surrounded by a golf course on one side and agriculturally preserved land, restricted from future development, on the other side, thus ensuring privacy and natural beauty.

The single-family homes are expected to range in price from the mid--to upper--$500,000s to the mid--to upper--$600,000s.
