That works too. But I feel it is only fair to let people know ahead of time what this place is like, and I for one really don't want it changed from how it is run now south of 466. So some do and some don't and one's idea of perfect is no more valuable than the others.

I like what the skilled group who planned this place is doing far better than the group of village folks who want to run things with very little skill in doing so. I LOVE the deed restrictions, just the way they are. The flowers just the way they are, the fact that the amenity fee is based on cost of living, that everything is maintained and painted and cleaned beautifully just the way it is.

Folks must be drawn to this place the way it presents itself. Good. I like it too. Like many who have been here for awhile, I resent people who move here and right away try to take control and change things. Thank heaven for the CDD form of government.
