An item in the newspaper the other day caught my eye... at the most recent Sumter County Commissioners meeting, they voted on a proposal to amend the CDD 8 boundaries. So, I started digging around the Sumter County website and uncovered some interesting info.

First, the recent amendment is for 28 acres to be added to CDD 8. The parcel is accessible from 466 just about halfway between Buena Vista and Morse (south side of 466). There used to be buffalo in this field. If you've driven the cart trail on 466, this is the place where you hit a stop sign and there is a driveway but only a field beyond. There will be 53 dwellings in there and infrastructure construction is planned for 2010.

Secondly, they've reconfigured the boundaries for CDD 9 and 10. 9 is now the north half of the area below 466a and 10 is the southern half (they used to be aligned east and west). What this also revealed was CDD 9 will have 5,040 lots and is planned to have the infrastructure developed from 2010-2013. CDD 10 will have 5,563 lots and infrastructure construction is 2011-2014. So, that's a total of 10,603 houses to be built south of 466A.

This can be found on Sumter county website, agendas and minutes, and clicking on attachments for various agenda/minutes items.

So... almost 11,000 units south of 466A and problably 2,000-3,000 units still to be built north of 466A. If they sell 2,500 houses a year (just a WAG) that's about 5.5 yrs or almost 2016 before all is done. Who knows what the future holds???
