For some businesses with a well-known name and customer base (McDonald, Publix, Walmart, etc.), no, it won't make a difference.

It will impact smaller businesses that will have a harder time absorbing the cost. Some may just wait until the West Lakes properties start to open up and build in Lake county instead of Sumter county. Some may just move on to better markets.

Carpe diem quam minimum credula postero
Society is produced by our wants, and government by wickedness; the former promotes our happiness positively by uniting our affections, the latter negatively by restraining our vices. - Thomas Paine, 1/10/1776
