Interesting thought on fire impact fees. Some counties in Florida charge developers a one time fire impact fee for new construction. (e.g. Orange County) I don’t think the Villlages Developer would be required to pay any fire impact fees on new houses if we pass the independent fire department. The rest of Sumter County that is not in the boundaries of The Villages is also being heavily developed with all the new developments spread around Wildwood and the county would still need to provide increased fire protection for this area. Also, more schools may have to be built in the county because of all the new homes and apartments being built. Taxes may have to be increased.
