Villa Parking
 
In villa neighborhoods where the street dead ends, are the dead end roads specifically for the owner who lives nearest them or for overflow or guest parking?

The roads in patio villa are open for anyone to park anywhere at any time according to Sumter County, I guess they would have to be operable vehicles though. Other homes like designer, you aren't allow to park on the street. I guess depending on village and circumstances. I called Sumter county and that is my source for patio villa parking. No restrictions. Designer homes - some friends say in their area of tamarind grove, culdesacs are off limits to parking on streets.

In the courtyard villas, the deed restrictions state:

"No owner of a homesite shall park, store, or keep any vehicle except wholly within his driveway, garage or other non-visitor parking spaces."

Note that there are designated visitor spaces, and visitors are allowed to park on the courtyard villa streets, but the owners are not allowed to park anywhere off of their own property. The courtyard villa streets are not county roads.

I have a end of the street patio villa and there are two spaces in front of my house. My neighbor and I are dreading the rental unit across the street and the junky looking cars that it could possible bring. Other homes like designer, you aren't allow to park on the street.

Most if not all designers are on public streets so parking s allowed if not blocking traffic

Except across the street from the Fenney Putt and Play, where Wildwood is placing "No Parking" signs on the public streets, because the residents complained.

If it is important for you to know, I would suggest contacting the sheriff's department for a definitive answer. As you can tell, you already got 4 different answers in 4 posts on this forum.

Parking on the street in front of your house is allowed with designer homes. In fact, you can park your boat or rv on the street and TV can do nothing about it and the sheriffs will not either, because it's not against the law.

There is an ordinance against it in Wildwood so can't park them there.

I live in the Fruitland Park (Lake Co) portion of TV (Pine Hills). An overnight guest parked her car on the street in front of my designer house and in the morning we found a note from Community Watch saying parking on the street not allowed. Ever since then I tell guests to park in my driveway.

Unless you are in a villa, TV has no control over what is parked on the street. It is not their property.
I parked 2 cars and a jet ski on the street in front of my house for a week. Someone called com watch and they told them they could do nothing, not their property. So they called Sumter county, who again told them it is not against the law to park on the street. If the nosy idiot had just talked to me instead of complaining anonymously, he would have found that there was a perfectly good reason why nothing could be on my driveway and that is was a temporary situation. Now he's just stirred the pot and my other neighbors keep telling me I should park vehicles out there every day, just to be spiteful. I'm not going to because this guy is whacko and there's no telling what he would do to my vehicles.

Those areas should be left open for emergency vehicles. The deed restrictions for the villas clearly state that owners are to park their vehicles on their own property and visitors are to park in the designated areas.

We don’t live close to any dead-end streets and we only have 3 visitor spots so visitors just park in the street and some owners park their 2nd or 3rd car in the street. No big deal.

In my opinion, The Villages should just do away with designated visitor parking spaces in the courtyard villa sections. Some inconsiderate owners will always ignore the rules and use these spaces for their own vehicles. Sometimes they will park a vehicle there for several months at a time.
