I didn't realize an 18 year old could reside in The Villages
 

18 years old Kelvin William Moore resides in Fenney with his 54 year old mother whom he criminally battered. He was arrested according to the unmentionable on-line news.

With all the hubbub over a little white cross in one's yard or a great looking $4,000 artificial turf front lawn one would think that whatever authority is responsible should be policing the 19 and over age restriction.

They can't but evidently the neighbors were ok with it and didn't make the call. It continues to be our responsibility to either accept or reject those that disregard the deed restrictions they signed up for when they purchased. It's your neighborhood.

I'd feel better that if there was something to be changed with the law that allows him to be out of jail! Perhaps there has been an exception due to some behavior/medical issue.

the developer sold them the house knowing that 20 percent can be under 55 just to make a quick buck. greed

That is an “inside the house” issue and is enforced by the Developer and not Community Standards.

Enforced
 

I've never read or heard where the developer has ever enforced an inside the house covenant violation. Anyone know? Not to say it hasn't but would reassure us if we were informed that rules are being enforced.

It's the LAW, but don't let that cloud your negative view.

Thought they couldn’t sell new home to someone who had children less than 19 years old? Nobody monitoring or give a ____ all about the money. Once in they expect someone to rat them out.

Maybe the rule breaker (mom) lied about having an under 19. How is that "all about the money"?

Some never miss a chance .......

Gospel.

Was he there more than 30 days??:shrug:

Nothing in the requirements regarding the age of homeowner children in order to own property.

Having a young child is not an issue.

That is my take on it. She knowingly has been breaking the law, deed restriction or covenants, whatever applies.

"While The Villages is a 55+ active adult community we welcome children and grandchildren. In fact we offer (year round) intergenerational activities called “Camp Villages”, allowing grandparents and grandchildren to experience together all the lifestyle The Villages has to offer. There is a 30 consecutive day limit for visitors under the age of 18."
