The gates will block entry from Paradise to the path that TV maintains which has pavers and lights. It goes into the parking lot for several medical offices before going through the recently paved path by the new assisted living facility and onto Lowe's.
Curious as to what was going on, I called someone I know who works for the VCDD and was told that the Villages Hospital owns the property and the powers-that-be are closing access to golf carts to that area permanently. Why? I don't know.
I am very upset and confused. Does anyone know anything more about this? Not only will it prevent Villagers from going by cart to many, many businesses and doctors' offices, it will prevent people in the other neighboring developments from coming into TV on their golf carts.
Why?

Many carts are crossing illegally 441 and going to get hurt or killed. The Villages seems to be getting worse rather than better as a friendly home town! Sorry but true. To make matters worse we the owners are not given rime or reason and possible action plans. Very Sad indeed.
