There are a number of people who appear to lose sight of the relevant issue.
Simply stated the gate was not erected to keep people out. It was erected to keep people who are not residents of The Villages access to use their golf carts on private cart paths paid for by residents of The Villages. In that same vein non-residents are welcome to come to The Villages via cars.
Additionally many villagers also utilize their cars to go to the square, their doctor's office or to a restaurant. Personally I only use my golf cart for golf.
As to the charge that village residents are hypocrites as to use of private property beyond the gate well those establishments have made their locations golf cart accessible and that has nothing to do with The villages as it is an open invitation.
The Developer must not blink on this issue because his marketing specifically states you are buying the LifeStyle. If residents find that anyone can have access well.............
If StoneCrest realtors advertise use of The Villages amenities then I believe StoneCrest residents have a beef with them not The Villages
Stand firm Developer because there are a whole lot of non-residents in the surrounding area ready to make a mad dash across that Lifestyle line without paying their amenities fees
