Default CDDs

Community Development Districts are allowed by Florida law. (Not a county by county regulation.) There are other existing non-Villages Community Development Districts in Lake County. The Florida law (I recollect) came about sometime in the early 80's. According to John Rohan, the section of The Villages that is known as the historical section, began development before this law came about, and before The Villages knew enough about what they were doing in this area. This is why TV does not have an existing CDD in Lake County. He specifically said that the Fruitland Park development in TV will be CDD 11.
