This was just sent to me. Residents have now been evacuated. Not a minor issue.


Friends and relatives have been telling me it is all over their local news t.v. stations......in various parts of the U.S......so the word is spreading. They knew we were planning to retire to T.V.


Guess full disclosure is "out there"...............like the "X Files".












 

That news is not up to date. But THIS IS.....;


Quiet returns to Chalmer Terrace after week-long sinkhole drama



All was quiet Friday afternoon on Chalmer Terrace in the Village of Buttonwood.

All was quiet on Chalmer Terrace Friday afternoon following six days of drama after a sinkhole dramatically expanded the day before Easter Sunday.
Gone were the Orlando television trucks, Villages Public Safety and Community Watch.
The lone person to be seen Friday afternoon was a Helicon Property Restoration employee, hosing down the street.
The two homes in the Village of Buttonwood which had dangled Saturday night on the edge of a 60-foot sinkhole, still bear the bright orange signs declaring them uninhabitable.
The owners of both homes were out of the town when the drama unfolded this weekend.
On Thursday, Gina Lambert of the Villages Public Safety Department told the media that it was time to watch and wait. Eighteen truckloads of fill dirt were hauled in mid-week after the sinkhole expanded again.

The scene Saturday evening in the Village of Buttonwood.


This forum does not allow links to the villages (dash) news.com. Nor does it allow cut and pasted pictures of the homes. So I cannot link you, but it is a good way to get valid and up to date news. We live here and know what is happening, minute to minute.
