Default Update: drone flying in The Villages

Hi all,
I reviewed an old thread (now closed) about flying drones in The Villages...ref: Drone use in and around The Villages [TV]

Questions:
I do know that Don Wiley is the guru for the drone club here in the villages and I have flown with them at the Soaring Eagles baseball fields.

I was told yesterday that there may be some updates to local policies specific to drones?

A LAANC approval does show us here as open airspace

So, non-commercial recreational flying is still legal?

Pls no snarky comments...just questioning from a FAA 107 licensed pilot...
