Default The Village of Sanibel

Noticed today's Construction Update in The Daily Sun included information about areas south of 466A. Maybe it's been published previously but I just saw it today.

They're working on the guardhouse and entry area for the Village of Sanibel off Morse Blvd. Also getting ready to start that village's postal station and pool with a tentative June completion.

The new fire station on Morse is scheduled for a fall completion.

Sounds like they're gearing up to jump the road and start building homes on the other side. Would not surprise me at all if people aren't living there by the end of the year.

Looking at the roads for this village on the Sumter County GIS map, it's very close to the landfill across from Colony Plaza. For as bad as it smells sometimes over by Colony, I would think those homes could be impacted.

The paper also mentioned construction has started on Sterling Heights Rec Center over by Tamarind Grove and St. James Villages. Again, a midsummer completion.

It will be interesting to see the last phases of The Villages take shape.
