I appreciate the info. Resident (and prospective resident) activity has gone a long way in helping us prove to some retailers that there is a market here for them and we continue to use it to this day.
We work through the appropriate real estate channels with every tenant, Trader Joes included. Many don’t know about The Villages or understand it. If you have like-minded friends in The Villages I would encourage you or them to either do a petition drive or send letters to the president of Trader Joes. That has been an effective vehicle in the past because it is from their potential customers (and not someone like myself on staff whose job is to “sell” the assets of the community).
If it’s a petition, please forward on to me and I’ll use it in conversations with their real estate department.
Thanks,
