If their plans don't include that, then I'll remain opposed. And I actually live IN Lady Lake, so my vote counts.

When Katie Belles was in business, how many people came to Spanish Springs to attend an event? How many cars were in Spanish Springs parking lots because of those events?
Now, I could be wrong, but I would think that the number of cars at best would be a wash, but most likely there will be fewer cars because of apartments than there were for a Katie Belles event.
Also... right now there are Villages offices on the second floor of some of the storefronts. Each person in those offices brings a car to work. If they put apartments on the second floor and move those offices to another location, all those cars will be gone.
My point is, I don't think the increase in the number of cars is going to be as big of an issue as someone might think.
