No Stonecresters, sneak in to use Villages pools, they have their own! They don't sneak in to use Villages Golf courses, they have their own!
They do Shop at public stores! They do support all the public restaurants! They do pay tax dollars in the same county Villagers live in, helping to support the county tax burden! They do use many of the public Health Care facilities! Are all these the Villages Lifestyle things that you think are bring used by Stonecresters??
Like I said before, Villagers are their own worst enemy. The enemy is Us!

Never said the people from Stonecrest used our pools or golf courses. They might, but I don't know. The things like the stores, health care facilities, squares are certainly available to everyone. No one is preventing anyone from using them. BUT, the multimodal pathways are PRIVATE PROPERTY of The Villages, and paid for, at least in part by our ammenties. The Villages do not receive funding for the multimodal pathways because, again---they are PRIVATE PROPERTY. The people outside the Villages have other ways of getting to the PUBLIC places. NO ONE is stopping that. If TV let Stonecrest use the MM pathways, then the people everywhere would want to use them, and then the people who are paying for the priviledge of using them would be bumper to bumper on the pathways. If the people from anywhere feel so strongly about using them, then go the legal route, and buy a home in TV. And by the way......if the people from Stonecrest feel so strongly about everyone being able to use everything, everywhere----why is there a gate at Stonecrest keeping people out???????? You never know, people might want to come to Stonecrest and support the shops or whatever there. Seems like a double standard to me.
