How many feet per day, while The Villages (privately owned) builds 3 or 4 whole villages, miles of streets and infrastructure, and multiple recreation facilities.
I can't believe that the poor local merchants haven't squawked to their local politicos for some action and accountability, or maybe that's just how business is run in Wildwood and at the FL DOT.  |
One of the ladies who works at the post office in Wildwood (and lives right off 466A) said that the construction has halted because there are a number of law suits against the construction company by residents who have significant property damage. Whether this is true or not I couldn't say, but a worker at the Widwood Ace Hardware said the same thing.
