The issue here is who should pay for the county infrastructure necessitated by the Developer's massive expansion of The Villages. That was the issue in the last county commissioner election. In that election, the voters decided, when they booted the Developer's puppets out by a 2-to-1 margin, that the infrastructure should be paid for by the Developer.
The Developer has built and PAID FOR every FIre Station in The Villages. They turn it over, AT NO CHARGE to the District.

I believe that is an example of where The Developer is paying for infrastructure.
