I think the building strategy is getting out of hand. It is already very crowded in that area, and 800 new homes is a lot of people. I know some will think I'm selfish, and that's alright. I do believe the land owner and the developer have the right to develop the property. I'm just saying, for me, I hope it doesn't happen.

This piece of real estate will be developed because of its location. If not by the Villages Developer, somebody else. Who do you think would do the best job? Cities and towns across the country would love to have the same opportunity that is offered to Wildwood. Greatly increase your tax base and not increase your schools enrollment by a single student. That is a deal!
