A VERY bad idea that no doubt will bring in a lot of calls and complaints. What was TV thinking doing this???

No warning, nothing in the precious Villages Sun and no notice...just slapped up the wall and stuck a sign in the ground. Wanna take bets on how long it is before we see graffiti on that damn thing?

All of you who are laughing at this and calling us whiners, I want you over there on the south side to imagine a wall going up and blocking off Colony Plaza with no way to get around it. I'm tired of everyone thinking this a "get over it" situation.
This thing was slapped up in the middle of the night. That doesn't say up and up to me...that says sneaky. NO notice and no regard for the fact that residents were going to be stuck on the other side trying to get in after working all night! It's cold, cruel and harsh. I missed a DR appt this morning because my husband took the car and I couldn't get over there! That's not "you people have no clue"...that's reality and reality for us sucks right now.

Interesting......................................
