My understanding is that it was the developer who owned it until the CDDs took over. It has been an area reserved for work and possible expansion of roads. It is not for public use any more than a (public) judge’s office is available for public use. The homeowner is required to maintain it, but unlike sidewalks, that area is not designated for the public.
