Everything here is well thought out. It's about clean streets that don't look like abandoned towns. In our previous state- Massachusetts- everyone had large plastic, lidded trash cans. Not everyone brought them back from the curb in a timely manner- Surprise! And not eveyone stored them out of sight. Drive down any street the day after trash day and you'll find the cans still on the curbs tipped over, in the street, or blown down the road. One of the benefits of living here is it's clean, uncluttered appearance. Have you noticed there is an absolute bare minimum of Road Signs here? Again, another thing that gives our area a clutter-free appearance.

It is very antiquated and unhygienic how we have it here in the Villages. Leaving trash on the ground gets a crazy amount of bugs/rodents, and makes a soupy mess when it rains. It's also terrible for the crew to have to handle leaky dirty cardboard and trash bags flying around in the rain overnight.
Find My District - The Villages Community Development Districts
I recommend people find their CDD reps here and email them a simple request to modernize the system as I have done as well.
