Just a couple of insights to this. The Villages are in direct violation of the Americans with disabilities act as they in fact do not have enough handicap parking for the number of parking around the squares. Especially Lake Sumpter Landing. Before you comment that there are lots of handicap parking behind the stores, the spots have to be within 100 feet of an entrance or a venue to which the squares are. There is a parking formula on the ADA web site. They are also in big time violation when they block off the parking for vendor night and don't supply temporary handicap parking. There should be handicap parking along Canal st. Again the answer (wrong one) is they have plenty behind the stores. That's why I only shopped down there once and do not go to vender nights. It's the same old stuff anyway.
