Yes our two scenarios were completely different, I was borrowing "The situation is different" part of your statement.
I hadn't considered the political affiliation aspect, I was thinking more on the lines of age related issues. FP is a younger population and their needs are/will be different from the typical TV resident. I was thinking 5 years down the road when it comes time to build new schools or replace infrastructure in the non TV areas will the new voting block have the attitude that it's your problem not ours and we don't want OUR taxes raised and block any new funding for the existing town.
Just read some of the posts on this board and you can see where that feeling comes from
Lady Lake is a much larger town with only a small % of that TV and they've learned to live together. Wildwood is on par with FP but they don't allow golf carts on their streets (?) I don't remember seeing anything about any acrimony involving Wildwood. But a major issue was raised about FP having cart access into TV and that may be a stumbling block for the residents of FP. And to an outsider it comes across as we're moving in, we can(will) take over and you stay out of OUR area.
