1. You want to be sure to get a permit.
Florida friendly is a bit of a gray area. It is legal BUT,
intruding on your neighbors is not. Your neighbors may
see it as a weed patch.
PROBLEMS ARE BEST AVOIDED.
2. Soil in the villages is awful. North of 466 it is sandy clay,
south of 466 it is clayey sand. IT ALL STINKS.
When, you remove the sod, you will want to add 2-3
of organic matter and rotatill it in, Even that is not as
easy as it sounds as you certainly have buried wires,
plumbing, electrical service etc.
