We need to start taking charge of our Hometown! It seems a lot of the newer residents are not aware and/or do not care...used to love this place until they tore down Katie Belles and Hacienda County club -and built South of 44 without providing the necessary facilites and golf courses...so crowded now that Mr. Schwartz would be so upset that his grandchildren are so disgracefully greedy and have spoiled our Hometown!

I would also like to know why we can't recycle - what a tremendous waste of all the plastic and glass bottles AND soda, food etc cans - wish we could find a place to take them. I heard they are saving The Villages $1million a year by using the new garbage company - really? -- would not be surprised if the "billionaire developers" had an interest in the new garbage company - I can only imagine the mountains of plastic bottles going up in smoke in one week. I'm not normally an environmentalist but this is CRAZY
I have lived in the Villages since 2010. We used to have recycling with the old waste provider. I am a snow bird and have the same waste company (that services many states) in New York as we now have in The Villages and they handle our recycling up there. The Villages probably didn't want to pay for the recycling option.
