In reply:
The issue here is not whether or not The Villages is a nice place to live. I will freely concede that it is. This discussion is about having local government that represents the residents, not just the Developer. There is no reason why we taxpayers should be subsidizing the Developer's business.
We are living in a community, not in a resort hotel. We deserve government that represents the people, not one special interest. Local government has become a plutocracy.

I have lived here for more than a dozen years and I have been very aware of all that has happened here and what is going on now. I have had no reason to not trust the developers. I trust the developers far more than some people with an agenda to overturn this very well functioning CDD form of Government. I suspect that some of the folks posting do have some ties to a political agenda or they simply want to run things. One of my worst nightmares.
