Well here it is MARCH 9th and the survey should be activated tomorrow the 10th.

As of 9PM Monday there’s 59 posts, here’s a synopsis in no particular order other than 1st come – 1st served.

The dog park issue was very big as was the seating at the Savannah Center. Also generating much comment was fitness centers.

Now, ‘seed your interest but also fertilize your neighbors’..


1. Allow the credits earned to be used in the Country Club restaurants as well as the Pro shops.
2. Allow non-priority golfers the chance to sign up for Championship events on men's day that remain open after the priority golfers sign up.
3. Move the train tracks 2 miles to the west
4. Amenities and trail fees should be PER PERSON rather than per home.
5. More exercise classes at The Savannah Center.
6. Dog park south of 466
7. Comfortable seating at the Savannah Center.
8. Widen cart paths north of 466 plus the Morse bridge south of 466
9. Free WI-FI throughout the Villages
10. Free online golf reservation system
11. INDOOR POOLS
12. One gym that has a free-weight room for serious bodybuilders and lifters. Lots of free weights, dumbells and benches, rubber matted floors, HammerStrength equipment and LOUD 80's hair band music. with sauna or steam room. Also how about a real hot tub.
13. A decent Performing Arts Centre.
14. End billing residents for months they are not using the service. (You can put a billing hold on other services not used)
15. Reduce charge for trash pick up since recyclables have been removed from trash and are no longer sent to tipping station and landfill.
16. Stop charging for recycling as it should pay for itself
17. A golf cart path from the end of Ellenton Run, around the pond, to Colony Plaza so that we don't have to drive all around the hood, so we can get bagels in the morning
18. How about a PEOPLE park?
19. Allow fences at houses
20. Lets make the renters pay for golf and limit the number of times they can play in a month. It will give the residents more available tee times.
Also limit the developers tee times for life style previews as well.
21. And last buy certainly NOT LEAST is Canabarrybarb’s comment about a resolution to the IRS issue. I think BETTER OVERALL COMMUNICATION FROM THE DEVELOPER OUT TO BE IN EVERYONE’S BEST INTEREST.



I don't agree with all but give all serious thought in how it MIGHT be related to ammenities and future growth of TV.
