Go talk directly to them instead of contacting someone at the Villages who arent going to help you anyway
Personal experience as far as the Villages aren't going to help you. Years ago our neighbor hired a landscaper. They intruded onto our property with a cement construction. Our neighbor was very nice agreed to have the people move it.

The landscaper came over to swear at me. Stuff like he is the expert etc. I told him
I will check with the villages. The villages quickly came over. Looked and confirmed it was on my property. The landscaper had not filed a REQUIRED PLAN. The villagers told my neighbor and the contractor that he would not be paid till he filed a plan and corrected the issues. I of course took pictures. It was a bit of a surprise that the work was done carefully and they did not damage my property out of spite. My neighbor later told me that the guy he hired was arrested shorty after. The Villages did get involved and the person they sent was very professional at not escalating the issue.
