I'm not saying this new development is bad. It can even be said that it is great. But, come on. How can you state that the developer was planning to stop after Sumter Landing? What happened to this great vision that the Morse family has? That kinda falls apart if they don't know what's coming a couple of years out, don't you think?

Do you think that when Orange Blossom was built, way back in the beginning that there was a vision that included Spanish Springs, Lake Sumter Landing, Brownwood, over 30 Executive courses and a dozen Championship courses?
Of course not!
This community evolved from a few mobile homes built around a 9 hole executive course. As they gained property and chose to expand they went to the drawing board and chose to build 1 village at a time, offer a multitude of amenities and bring in the best and brightest from Disney to develop the first town square.
They have created a top class community here, step by step. Brush up on the history of The Villages. You will see that what you are saying is not correct.
They have several hundred sales agents. That is why they keep major information under wraps until it is released to the public. The head of Sales is Jennifer Parr, Gary Morse's daughter. The head of Development is his son. So yes, I am sure that they discuss plans with a select group of advisors. But the sales agents are told in a large group meeting just as the news it released to the public.
And no, I think OJ is guilty..... Not sure where that fits in to this discussion about The Villages Development Company building a isolated community 5 miles down the road.
Is there a possibility that they will build more in the future? Heck yes! They have a winning formula and ready buyers. There are no other Active Senior Communites that offer what we have. We all know that. Selling between 200-300 new homes a month is proof of that.
