I'd say the only reasonable option you have is to either accept its going to happen or leave the Villages before your property values and lifestyle are infringed upon. Those are the things you can change, the coming of apartments you probably cannot change.
The remarks are well taken.
But there are many things in writing by the developer.
The Restated property report we received from the State of Connecticut...before our real estate closing ...which advised us " You are entitled to cancel this contract by midnight or the third day on which you have executed this contract or agreement. You are encouraged to have an attorney review your contract
....to ensure you thoroughly understand the terms.....etc " Attached to that was the "Developer's concept of what the Villages was; and what it would be...(all 34 pages)".
Additionally...we still have a copy of the written sales brochure edition 2004.."The Villages Our Hometown"...which states in writing what The Villages was.and touts all the perks...etc.
Also have The Villages Golf and Country Club Living sales brochure (Revised 11/20/02)...that specifically
notes Hacienda CC and its' amenities..
This is just a few written items...the developer would have to address.
Cannot see someone promising something...to entice another party to buy something...and then totally disregarding what they promised in writing.
Hope this info helps.

Talk is just talk. Get people together to pay for and hire a legal team. It's been tried before and failed every time. People love to sound off but won't stand behind what they say when they have to open their wallets. Good luck trying.
Been here 19 years, heard it all before, changes made that people were screaming no to when suggested all ended up just fine, even traffic problems relieved with stop lights. So either put out for attorneys or sit back and watch the changes take place. Of course, you can always move away too. Me, I'm staying, it's still better than anywhere else I'm aware of.
