I am so used to everything looking so spiffy and nicely kept...I wonder why this is.

I think that each village entrance is up to that village if it is decorated.

Does anyone know how this works?

Entry Sign Wall Holiday Decorations
It’s that time of year again when resident
groups inquire on decorating the en-try sign walls for the holiday sea-son. Decorations must not be placed before December 1st and they must be removed by the first week of January. All decorations must be approved prior to installation. You may contact District Property Management at 352-753-4022 for additional information.
Village Community Development District Re-vised Board Holiday Decorations Policy
Overview: The District will allow only entry sign walls to be decorated by resident groups.
This excludes postal stations and gates. Specifica-tions for entry wall decorations are:
• Green garland, green wreaths (maximum 3ft. diameter not to obscure sign wall lettering) and red bows.
• The Board of Supervisors adopts a policy
that allows only wire, rope or cord be used
to display Holiday decorations from the en-try walls.
• The Board of Supervisors prohibits the use
of nails, screws, tape or other material that
would break, peel, or penetrate the surface,
lights (electric or battery), statues, or colored
ribbons other than red.
• Decorations will not be displayed before De-cember 1st and must be removed by the first week of January.


Residents Must Submit A Design To District
Maintenance Supervisor Prior To Installation.
Board adopted this policy on February 28, 2003.
