As many of you know during the month's that our "snowbird" friends are vacationing here the traffic and the pedestrian traffic in the Town Squares and the shopping areas has become short of unbearable and unsafe. With the now construction of the new "Village of Fruitland Park " and 2,ooo homes , the shopping at Colony Plaza will become even more of a hardship , you can not shop there now as the Plaza is crowded and does not have the necessary commercial space available to accommodate this proposed surge of 2,ooo shopper's from this new Village. Now the developer with the addition of the new Village at Fruitland Park will create a bigger nightmare than already exsists . In looking over the proposed new village plans the only entrance and exit to Colony Plaza is through the Morse Boulevard tunnel , look forward to the access path to and from from that area south of Colony Boulevard that is already overloaded with golf cart traffic to become a long wait to cross. The improvements that are planned for that crossing will once again become in-adequate from the tunnel at Morse Boulevard south of 466a and leading to the two way golf cart traffic to Colony Boulevard. Imagine another two thousand golf carts entering Colony Boulevard from that small golf cart path. This proposed situation needs to be addressed now and not wait for a serious accident to happen.
