What a perfect place to initiate unfounded rumors!
My gut tells me that The Developer has realized that The Villages has actually reached its geographical comfort zone.
Also, He has realized that further development may very well be contradictory to his Overall Plan! That is, there must be a physical limit on size, because otherwise folks will say, "It's too big; we can't support such a huge place!"
Please understand my point of view: 'my gut!' There is absolutely no basis in fact to these observations!
