There was enough land.
I'm excluding the wetlands.
If they wanted a full size town square...............there was enough land.
Town Squares and Sawgrass are planned before housing, rec centers, putt-putt.
The golf course is across the street..............I said on the North side.
If you really care...........measure it..................or are you just arguing.

You are correct. Sawgrass was planned long ago. NOT TO BE A TOWN SQUARE...
It was planned to be a twist on a Country Club. Hence, the pro shop within the market. Yes, the market, NOT the town square...
The new town square was planned to be across the new Bexley bridge, in Eastport. Plenty close to all points east of the turnpike and not too close to Brownwood... Also serving those to the north (Marsh Bend, Fenney, etc) and points to be built farther south...
Putting one in both places would be contrary to how they've placed them in the past. SS is far enough from Lake Sumter, which is far enough from Brownwood. Those between them have an easy ride to any of them, and are not too far from them either...
I'm in Osceola Hills (south, near 44). I'm closest to Brownwood (which is still 15-20 minutes and a half hour to Lake Sumter). SS is waaay too far (for me) to go by golf cart on a regular basis. The new Town square in Eastport will be 15-20 minutes from just about anywhere east/north of the Turnpike...
There is a method to their madness... Just because YOU insist there is room for a town square where YOU want it to be doesn't mean it is the right place for it to be...
So dude, you can stop "just arguing" any time...
