An engineer with nearly 50 years experience in real estate development and construction, Jim Sanders set a new standard for land planning in Florida with an innovative design at Sugarmill Woods that set aside one-third of the community as permanent nature preserves. He also served as the senior officer for the development of Southern Woods Golf Club designed by Hale Irwin and World Woods Golf Club, a Tom Fazio-designed golf course that is consistently ranked among the best in Florida.
