With us putting our home on the market anyway, this may send us to a place that sells, homes more reasonably, without the amenity fee. We are looking around outside the Villages. TV may not lose a lot of current people, but not having the LLC will definitely be a detriment to some people to pay the amenity fee if they can't get what they want here anymore. I know the artist around here are up in arms. If TV wanted to do something, they would think of some way around it.
There is already some place which is thinking of doing this. Will have to look up where.
At LLC I learned watercolour, acrylics, cooking, knitting. drawing, and proper techniques to strengthen my core. All good classes. I have always stuck up for the developer, but they have lost my respect land for future development, without beefing up the infrastructure so why add another discouragement to the mix. Even the people that build in Feeney will need to come north for medical care, shopping and worshiping and they all will need to take Buena Vista and Morse.
I am sorry that you are leaving TV. I hope you find what you are looking for outside TV. The LLC was certainly a nice perk for Villagers but it had nothing to do with our amenity fees or being exclusive to The Villages residents. Anyone from anywhere could take classes. It cost non-residents a bit more, but the classes were available.
