Developers of the Villages would be very hard pressed selling the Villages' if the cops were not allowed to come onto their private property to combat all kinds of crimes.
Access for the public also plays into just how private this property really is. The Villages golf courses are more of a semi-private nature with all the people who show up on them regularly.
I am surprised that the Sumter County Sheriff's Office has not pressed more into enforcing various FL state laws and local ordinances with respect to speeding and the like. Seems this is more of a political solution involving the developers' clout than a legal one.

I'm not talking about felonies. I'm talking about traffic infractions. What's the difference between speeding and reckless driving? Why can they enforce one and not the other?
