What's Next for the Former Paraclete Property?

Al Moore discusses how he may use the land, following the Sunset Hills board's rejection of his proposal for a community library.

A week after the Sunset Hills Board of Aldermen rejected resident Al Moore’s request to operate a library on the former Paraclete property, he’s already considering alternative uses for the property.

The board unanimously rejected Moore’s request on March 12 based on a lack of compromise between the property's owner, Al Moore, and residents in the Tapawingo subdivisions. Alderman Dee Baebler was absent.

Moore is still seeking historical status for four buildings on the property, according to Suburban Journals. Moore told Suburban Journals he’s “been in touch with some churches and schools” to use the property.
