Lake County does not allow for this type of development for what it is, so the idea is to rezone and annex the land to circumvent the system to do it anyway...that is the issue.

3, 5, 10 acre lots with reasonable modest homes yes, I'll be for that all day long, 800 manufactured homes and 34 other buildings to go with it, I'm not so sure.

This is happening all around the Town of Lady Lake. Just look at the Zoning WEB Site and see the number of requests for rezoning and annexations being requested all of them for changing agricultural land over to medium density housing. They are putting 100 homes on five acre lots thats where the other 10,000 people are going right in the 466 area.

Walmart is trying to squeeze in also and are taking down large mature canopy oak trees that are near 200 years old. Do we really need another Walmart?, there are already 3 in a five mile radius.

Maybe there is a terminology problem. They seem to be proposing six homes per acre or 30 homes on five acres, not 100 homes on five acre lots. Six homes per acre is the density of the Villages. 100 homes on five acres would need to be an apartment building.

I still don't see the additional 7,400 approved homes or the 10,000 proposed homes.
