Re: Bison Valley residents using The Villages family pools
I haven't decided which way I would like to see this situation go but I'm not impressed with the argument:
"In exchange for these people serving your everyday needs they get to use your cart paths, pools, rec centers, etc."
Why not give Village employees the keys to your house too? IMHO, I wouldn't want the landscapers, painters, Drs., postman or whoever to come and swim in my pool at home but accordingly to that philosophy, if they work for me I must share everything I own and I must provide everything in which they would like to participate. Must we feed them too? If this is a wide open community, we need to tax everyone accordingly so that everyone can enjoy the features and not stick some of the people with the amenity fee bill.
And aren't these people being paid wages? What areas of the country advise us if we employ someone, we must turn over our property to them for use?
