I am not so sure that build out will ever occur. When we came here they said that the end of building in the Villages would be in 2015 when the number of people should reach 115,000 people.
Since we have purchased TV has acquired at least two more parcels of land. I don't know what they intend to do with them but since the executive courses, the recreation centers and many recreational programs are already maxed out, I hope it will not be used for housing.
People are getting very frustrated by getting "not accomodated" on golf courses, closed out of rec programs, or standing for an hour or so to get a spot in exercise programs. Last month my amenity fees earned me only two rounds of golf and nothing else. It seems like any extra housing--from this day forward-- should be backed up by the promise which was made to us when we built. Before homes are started, the swim pools, golf courses and rec centers will be built first. This is no longer happening.
Additionally, at least the last 4-5 Villages on top of 466A have been too large. In Buttonwood we have almost 1200 homes with one rec center the same size as the 500 home Villages have. We have pools the same size but we have to share the family pool and rec center with Pennecamp, which is also a very large Village. The idea that they are continuing to build is disconcerting to those us us that are already over crowded.
Thanks for letting me vent. I always get crabby when I get Bronchitis and can't breathe. LOL
