Under normal circumstance, I prefer to view the glass as half full. However, the bond controversy inspires more questions to those who are curious by nature.

In a worst case scenario, what happens to the status of the CDD amenities? Is there a window of opportunity for political entities such as Lake County, Sumter County, the City of Lady Lake or Marion County to enter the equation in a way that would open up access to all Villages amenities to their non-Villages residents? Is the current amenity regulatory process designed to restrict access to property owners? Is there any outcome that would provide access rights to incorporated municipal or county entities within the Villages boundaries?

From a few years ago, I have a vague recollection of an access interest to a certain amenity by a local agency....can't remember which one but it may have been from Lake or Marion. I am not certain, but possibly posted in TOTV. I really can't remember the specifics....sorry.

It is not my intention to exacerbate this complex issue. However, unintended consequence has often been a hallmark of government regulation. Perhaps my curiosity is misdirected and without merit. I hope someone with knowledge and insight on this matter will take the time to debunk any suspicions it may generate.

Have another great day in The Villages.
