Who Owns the Vacant Lot ??

[Warren Kiefer]

I read articles supposedly written by the VHA president where all sorts explanatioins and agreements have been reached. Sadly, none offer a reasonable explanation why the wall was erected. That said, my point for this posting is in regards to the ownership of the vacant lot where the path exits the Villages. If that document offered in another postiong is accurate, it would seem that the developer doesn't even own that vacanr parcel. It would also appear the it was deeded to the town of Lady lake in 1998.
MY QUESTION, WHO ACTUALLY OWNS THE EMPTY LOT ????? In closing, if the document is valid, Janet Tutt and the VHA have no authority to propose anything.

This question was answered by EdV in the other thread.

The resolution to vacate was simply a process by which the town examined the proposed plan to convert the land into a golf cart thoroughfare and to establish the fact that the town had no intended use for that lot for supporting town utilities or other such usage.

Ownership of the lot did not change hands as a result of the approval of the resolution back in 1998. As of this writing it is still owned by Gary Morse’s company. And if the VHA’s proposal is accepted by Morse, ownership will passed over to the VCCDD which is totally controlled by guess who, why mister Gary Morse. But at that point, any liability issues would be the responsibility of the VCCDD which is funded by amenity revenue.

And as for the permit requested by Murray Construction, my guess is that they were the company that was assigned by Morse to take down the wall and they attempted to file for the permit as a formality in the process.
