The Villages, you may want to be aware that the Developer Representative can and did grant an approval for an RV garage prior to the development being turned over to The Villages. The ARC process takes place once The Villages takes control over the completed neighborhood (approximately one year later?) for any new applications for permit and claims no responsibility for the acts of the Developer Representative.

This is exactly what has happened to a kind couple that lives next door to a now RV garage. This garage in my humble opinion seems to fail on three key points that fall under the Developer's Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Relating to: Villages of Southern Oaks Unit No. 30A.

2.4 "Harmonious with the development as to... design, size, and other qualities"; 2.5 "Developer shall grant its approval only in the event the proposed work (A) will benefit and enhance the entire Subdivision in a manner generally consistent with the plan of development thereof, and..." and 2.9 "Outside structure permanently attached to the Home" (granted the plans have some type of little wall planned to attach it later and a HUGE screened enclosure over covering all open area).

The Villages have seemingly washed their hands of what has happened here. It is nice little loop hole people have discovered at the expense of their future or current neighbors. Go to the Developer before YOUR neighborhood transfers to The Villages for approval to store an RV at your home.

Buyers Beware of this when you buy your designer home.

In my humble OPINION this is hardly harmonious, does not match the size, height of walls, design of the neighborhood and certainly does not enhance the neighborhood. It should be on radars of those purchasing.
