First two paragraphs of the link in the OP??

LEESBURG — The city won’t be able to sell quite as much land to The Villages as it hoped because it must still use some of the land on County Road 470 for wastewater treatment.
Last year, the city planned to sell 1,938 acres for $11.9 million in the area where CR 470 meets Florida’s Turnpike. Now, that figure has been cut to 1,115 acres for $7.8 million.
