Or perhaps the other way around. We all realize Blechman had an agenda which is certainly not mine since I side strongly with the politics of the developer and plan on moving to a 55 and over active adult community. Nonetheless, Andrew did his homework and dug up and presented in his rather entertaining book some very important information, information I would certainly want as a potential future villager. I am the sort of person who whenever possible makes informed decisions. Others may not agree with them but I am the one who must live with them. Just for starters this particular chapter I found to concisely sum up the CDD structure possibly unique to TV, that the central districts which contain no residents are controlled by the developer AND they control the CDDs which contain residents. That is very important to know and understand, at least to me.
