Having been involved with building 3 houses with the Villagers Habitat Club in Lake County, I can tell you that there are rules for trees. Whether The Villages has an exemption, I have no idea. The information below was taken from the Lake County web site.

What are the tree requirements for a single-family residence?

Two trees for lots 6,000 square feet or less
Three trees for 6,001 to 10,000 square feet
Five trees for more than 10,001 square feet to one acre
Add three more trees per acre over one acre – not to exceed 15
Three acres = 11 trees
Four acres = 14 trees
Five acres = 15 trees
