Default Metal roofing in The Villages to satisfy current insurance issues?

I think it's time we started a movement to get The Villages to allow metal roofs along with asphalt shingled roofs. Metal roofs last a minimum of 3x longer, and the current issue with cancellations due to a roof being over 10 years old would be gone.

I think they look great (there are metal roof styles that look like shingles, look like tile, etc), and once installed are pretty much carefree for 40-50 years.

I had a metal roof in GA, and I was surprised that it was actually quieter than a shingle roof during rain and hail. I never had an issue with it.

Thoughts?
