Florida statue FS190 that allows the formation of the CDDs does not allow for providing specific services such as law enforcement and code enforcements, fire services have less stringent rules. Exercising FS191 Fire District formation would be a huge benefit to the residents of The Villages, it will cost us all a little more, but I think few would object (I could be wrong, some around here will complain about anything out of their own boredom).
