As Mr. Boston states, all real estate within the confines of The Villages is owned by somebody. As a Villages home owner, I believe that I myself am a partial owner of "Common Areas" within the Villages, and am entitled to use them in accordance with the rules for such use which were in force when I purchased my home.
I am aware of no rules prohibiting the walking of leashed dogs in areas such as around postal stations, alongside multi modal paths, and so forth. I pick up after my dog in these areas because it is the proper thing to do, not because I might be on some one else's property.
Common sense and common courtesy should rule in such matters.
By the way, I am not some one whose entire self image and self worth is defined by the condition of the grass surrounding his home.
