The Villages is no different than anywhere else. The developer can do whatever he wants with the land as long as the plan follows zoning ordinances. Of course, not everyone is going to agree with every plan. That's human nature. However, if the developer has not violated any ordinances then he has the privilege of carrying out his plan regardless of what you or I may think.

amgoldho: I am confused by the statement you made of "I would be less angry and hurt, if the developer said to us, "there is open land which we could develop in the near future. This would either be residential or commercial." They would probably get more suggestions as to what to do with the open land then go behind the back." Please explain how Mr. Morse supposedly (by your claim) went behind anyone's back? What do you base that belief?

Mr. Morse is doing his job of developing the land he owns of which he has every right to do. I don't know of any place that requires a developer to ask for citizen input.
