Do you realize that the Rec Centers are sold back to the CDDs? Yes, they are nice but you are effectively paying for them via your amenities fee (as about 50% of the amenities fee, IIRC, goes to pay off the purchase of the amenities from the Developer). This, by the way, is a good thing since one of the purposes of CDDs is too maintain amenities put in by Developers.

The custom interior furnishings in Rec Centers and the new schools are examples where they went first class.
