Within the legal limits, we have complete control of what happens to our community now, and in the future, the developer has virtually no say except for cdd13/14 and the commercial property they own.

The true fear of the developer stopping building is the loss of thousands of construction jobs that would devastate the local economy, result in high unemployment, higher crime, and the closure of many businesses. This country has 2 minor pillars in its economy-agriculture and the prisons, and 2 major pillars- construction and the wealth of the resident retirees. Damage any of them and the roof falls in.
