Another option would be a "gratus" Subsidy by Morris family even though they are legally not affiliated with the LC In my opinion, this is is a major major marketing blunder and lack of foresight on THEIR part, to let this " its a lifestyle" feature of the villages go "belly up". Love to hear the villages realtors explain this one, on top of health care decision at he peak of the sales season. Looks like They will have to update their video and marketing packets! Wonder what the cost of that is. The $$ to them, would have been inconsequential in the scheme of things !
Also, There could have been a plan B in place, in the event that the LC lost the lawsuit, or did they think they would win? There is something array here. Why keep issue quiet for so many years. Notice: 0nly one article in daily sun. No follow up !!!
Without knowing all the facts, ( I read the lawsuit, hard to discern the REAL issue) therefore hard to draw rational understanding. In the absence of this, speculation ( this is an example) will run rampant. SOMETHING SMELLS HERE,

It may be as simple as an attempt to stop the madness and not cave in to extortion. What's next if they cave---REC Centers, RLGs, nightly entertainment on the squares, all the pools. How can I shop at Publix if I can't ask where the anchovies are located---they should provide a full time ASL interpreter at every retail location! How can I ask to join a shuffleboard game at the neighborhood pool without an interpreter at all times? And how many other little groups with a disability will want their own special accommodations?
The problem does not lies solely with this (fill in the blank) or his (fill in the blank) lawyers. The problem is not even the ADA in and of itself, although it is vaguely written. The problem is with the bureaucrats and regulators who spell out the law and a judiciary that makes insane rulings. If it is ever to change, it will take a long time.
Meanwhile, it gives me an idea as to how to fight the terrorists. We don't need guns and tanks and cruise missiles. We just need to infiltrate their ranks with lawyers and ###holes, then sit back and watch the carnage. Unfortunately, we are beating them to the finish line in that regard. Can anyone say "Roman Empire"???
