Excellent summary, GWN.

How does this play out long-term when there are multiple local governments (CDDs) handling the amenities for different parts of TV?

Currently, the amenities fee is uniform across all portions of TV, but from reading your explanation I don't see a reason they need to be. As TV grows, I could see costs being different for different regions/governments and the proper thing to do would be for the citizens of each region to only pay what is appropriate for their amenities. Maintaining uniformity across "The Villages" could cause some regions to have too much money and others to under run. It seems that naturally the amenity fees will diverge over time.

Ah, the joys of growth.
