OK, let's see how much interest we have in a petition. Please know that this onlline petition is not intended to be disrespectful to any person or entity, nor is a criticism of The Villages or the lifestyle of The Villages.

This is the American way of letting governmental entities know the feelings of groups of citizens. It's as American as apple pie, and healthy to the governmental process.

In the United States the right to petition is guaranteed by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, which specifically prohibits Congress from abridging "the right of the people...to petition the Government for a redress of grievances".

If enough sign on to the petition, then it will be directed to the Ms. Tutt at the VCDD and Ms. Vesco at the Entertainment Division.

I'm simply acting as the secretary here, trying to reflect what I perceive to be a problem that is significant in the minds of many Villagers. You may access the petition at:
