Sylvester Stallone<\/a> has angered his Palm Beach neighbours with his request to keep boaters away from his $35 million (\u00a327.6 million) property using a unique method.<\/p>\n

The Rocky star, who purchased the Palm Beach property in 2021, has reportedly put forward plans to build an underwater barrier near his home.<\/p>\n

His neighbours, however, have aired their objections to the proposed plan which would see Stallone build a seaweed barrier around his home.<\/p>\n

According to The Palm Beach Post<\/a>, Stallone’s plans to build the barrier in the intracoastal waterway by his mansion which has been billed as an environmental project needed to keep out debris and seaweed from the waterway.<\/p>\n

However, a public notice from the Army Corps stated that ‘the overall project purpose is to exclude boaters’ from being near the property and seaweed was listed as a secondary concern.<\/p>\n

Neighbours were reportedly blindsided by the proposal, on which the Florida Department of Environmental Protection said they have until 5pm on Christmas Day to give their feedback.<\/p>\n

The actor’s application also includes a request for a lease of state land due to the positioning of the barrier, which would reportedly rise about 8 inches above the water and extend 10 inches below the water’s surface.<\/p>\n

‘He bought a beautiful property,’ Stallone’s neighbour Bradford Gary told the outlet, calling the home ‘one of the nicest houses’ in the North End.<\/p>\n

‘I can see why you’d want to protect it. But you can’t just stake your claim and think you own the water.’<\/p>\n

The publication reported that one question submitted about Stallone’s proposal brought up the prospect of manatees becoming entangled in the seaweed, as well as the proposed project’s effects on seagrasses.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for the Army Corps said in a statement: ‘The Corps is reviewing the project purpose to determine if the use of barrier for the purpose of deterring boaters within the public waterway is permittable.’<\/p>\n

Tulsa King<\/a> star Stallone purchased the seven-bedroom, 12-bathroom property in 2020, which features a guest home and its own pool.<\/p>\n

It comes after the Hollywood star celebrated Donald Trump’s<\/a> presedential win last month, dubbing the businessman ‘the second George Washington.’<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019ll just say this \u2013 and I mean it,\u2019 he said at the America First Policy Institute Gala. \u2018When George Washington defended his country, he had no idea that he was going to change the world.<\/p>\n

\u2018Because without him, you could imagine what the world would look like. Guess what? We got the second George Washington. Congratulations!\u2019<\/p>\n

He also likened Trump to his iconic character, Rocky Balboa, from the boxing film franchise.<\/p>\n
