It's a fair concern, but it's based on misinformation.

What's important to understand, is that The Developer doesn't own any of the homes or roads north of 466. They do own some of the commercial properties, but not all of them. And of course they still own the town squares. The Developer isn't responsible for anything else, once they give it over to the CDD's authority. That's just how developments with CDDs operate.
tl;dr - The Developer maintains quite a bit of influence over the Villages.

The numbered CDDs primarily take care of maintenance of infrastructure owned by those CDDs. They use a large number of services provided by (purchased from) the VCCDD.

The utility districts (NSCUDD, WUDD) use services provided by (purchased from) the VCCDD.

The VPSDDD will use services provided by (purchased from) the VCCDD.

The amenities (pools, executive courses, rec centers, activities, MMPS(?)) are owned and run from the SLCDD and VCCDD.

All DDs are run by supervisors elected by the property owners. The property owners in the numbered CDDs are the homeowners. The property owners for the SLCDD and VCCDD are the commercial businesses in the squares.

The Developer owns the commercial businesses in the squares.

The Developer picks the supervisors for the SLCDD and VCCDD.

The Developer has control over The District that provides services to all the CDDs (at a cost), has a great deal of influence over the utility districts, owns all the amenities, and runs the amenities. That's how the Villages CDD structure operates.

NOTE: Don't take my word on this, find out for yourself. Attend the short CDD orientation or the longer Resident Academy and attend the numbered CDD, PWAC/AAC, and NSCUDD/WUDD meetings.
