The petition would have rezoned four acres to heavy commercial to allow development of several stores anchored by a 30,000-square-foot grocery store plus parking.

Not part of The Villages, the property is across the highway from Laurel Manor Recreation Center near the Hampton Inn & Suites.”

I suspect that once this land is acquired by the Villages Developer, things will smoothly proceed.
