Default Re: Fence being removed by Lake Sumter Landing where buffalo were!

Alan, I don't know if it because we live in an area that has had so much grow in the last 25 years but when hubby and I first visited The Villages four years ago, we wondered what would be put in the undeveloped areas where the buffalo roamed. Even four years ago there was conversation in The Villages that the buffalo were on that land to make the taxes more palatable until the areas were developed. (Hubby and I have seen a lot of beautiful farmland in the Midwest gobbled up for development.) We, also, would like to know what is planned for those areas but I'm sure there is a masterplan for this community and the developer is not looking for our input for changes. If they start filling in the lowlands and lakes, we will then be in trouble.
