CITRUS HEIGHTS, Calif. -- Strapped by a recent $35 million sexual abuse settlement, the Sacramento Catholic Diocese has come up with a plan to raise some money that has some seniors outraged.

The diocese wants to sell the 130-acre Lakeview Village mobile home park in Citrus Heights.

Park residents were recently mailed a letter notifying them of the possible sale, which has many of them concerned.

"The biggest concern is that it would be sold to some organization who would want to convert it to something completely different than a mobile home park ... lord only knows what," resident Bill Sweeney said.
