Palmers Pothole
 
1 Attachment(s)
This pothole at Palmers has been there for almost a year now, they only put a cone over it a couple of months ago.

Yet, don't you dare go on that driving range without a collared shirt.

Oh, also a friendly reminder the green fees will be $70 come Jan 1.

Fix the dam pothole already!

There are no such things as potholes or sinkholes allowed in the official Villages vocabulary, they are referred to as depressions. And the green fees will be close to $75 for a resident member after taxes.

Thanks I needed that laugh. 😂

Funny. Sarasota driving range doesn't seem to require collared shirts.

You would think that for $75, you would get better conditions than exist today.

What was the pro’s response when you asked about the damage?

Free Enterprise rules!
 
There is enough demand to allow for a 75 Dollar green. Nothing personal, It's just business. Happy New Year!

As you probably know, people are “brave” hiding behind a keyboard rather than going to the source as to ask when the pothole may be fixed, why the green fees are $70, why he has to wear a collared shirt on the range, yada, yada, yada.

I suspect lopez and palmers will go way of HH country club in distant future as villages gets closer to highway 50.

CarlR33 12-27-2023 09:26 PM

Maybe you can use a sharpie to mark the cone “fix the damn pot hole”? LOL

I'm sure they will get right on it when I ask about it. LOL!

It's actually sad to see Palmers go down hill especially with the recent health code violations.

Just be sure to pay the 3% CC tax.

Not sure it makes sense to lump Commercial Property Management issues (cracked/potholed sidewalks) with any VCCD golf issues and it is definitely NOT productive to even allude to issues at the restaurant and equate it to have anything to do with golf. We all know the restaurants are privately run, the grounds are kept up by the developer on championship courses, but managed by the District. Don't we?

He said, "I bet the Bogie Man sent you!"

Hmm. My spouse was on the putting green at Mallory recently and told to wear a collared shirt.

Exactly. They have a captive audience here, so to speak. Most people won't go outside the Villages where course conditions are better and prices are cheaper, and The Villages takes advantage of that. Good business for them, not so great for the residents.
