I have great confidence that the developer is going to make the right choices for the greater good of all. Maybe it is because he will make more money and maybe because this place is his creation and he lives here too.

I don't have the same confidence that an elected homeowner is going to make the right decision for the greater good.

I like the CDD form of government in this case. I wonder just how it got changed north of 466? I wonder if it was caused by the lawsuit brought by the group of villagers including lawyers who won it and won several million dollars personally as a result of it.

I have never got it straight that the suit was brought to widen the cartpaths and because there was mold in one of the rec centers. The developer has painted the Odell rec center that was behind my house in Hadley completely in and out every year for the four years I lived there. The pool was immaculate. If a tree died at the Odell rec center, it was replaced. The planting beds were hand weeded. I see no evidence that he needed to be sued. Where I lived south of 466 was not involved in the lawsuit.

I am very confused by the undercurrents I feel against the developer and I suspect that it is class envy. Or perhaps it has to do with his contributions to his political party.

He had done nothing but take care of things nicely during the four and a half years I have owned property here.

Both new houses, anything that wasn't correct was immediately fixed.

I don't know who he is or what is on his mind but he seems to do the job for us.

We voted with our wallets to live here. Like others our home is the biggest financial outlay we have ever made.
