Im sorry, but if you are so unhappy with the way TV is being developed, my not just move to someplace that will make you happier? Seems "HE" has already offered to accept 40% add'l burden for increased impact. And dont lose track of all the POSITIVE impact this whole project has made on Central Florida in general in growth and jobs. If you would prefer small businesses and large projects like the hospital go to Marion or Lake, then I guess that is your preference. Wildwood has just approved continue development for the next 20 yrs, so i guess they see huge benefit to all this growth. I appreciate the growth and conveniences and amenities that come with TV expansion. Disney is probably the only other entity/visionary that has had this kind of local and broader impact on Florida, followed decades before, by Air Conditioning which has allowed for substantial growth. Perhaps you think all this is not a good thing, or you begrudge the fortune, earnestly gained, by an exceptionally talented and hardworking family who brought us the second fastest growing MSA in the country, and the lead retirement community perhaps anywhere. I dont get why people live here and yet grouse so much about "the Developer". And do you object as much to all the lobbyists in DC? Or just those who lobby for the Villages? Do you not think they had a hand in getting the Turnpike bridges in motion?
