I recently read in the April issue of the POA Bulletin that there are some unhappy property owners in the Village of Duval. It said that their property abuts the new assisted living facility on 466A. Does anyone know why this is creating such a problem for them?

Can't imagine why they are upset about that. We know there will be buildings going up all over the place. I have some friends that live over there & it doesn't bother them. You can see it from their yard.

I think original plans called for the structure to be 2 story. Then it was raised to 3 stories.

It looks like it's a beautiful building with lots of landscaping around it. Do the residents of Duval feel that it will detract from their property values? I would be surprised if it does, because there are many neighborhoods surrounding the squares that don't seemto have that problem.

You should add that the POA indicated that there was no guarantee that that space was not going to have something built on it. However, the POA would be glad to attend the meeting with the property owners.
Buyer beware.....if your potential new home backs up to an open space, it may not stay an open space.

You are so right...and we all should be old enough to know that.

Agree...no guarantee so I don't think the homeowners have a leg to stand on. But I have heard why they are upset through a friend who is a neighbor, although it probably won't make a difference. The residents don't like the idea that people in the facility can look out their window, look down, and see them in their pools or on their lanais. It's an invasion of privacy in their opinion.

If it's about the building....they should have known (w/o a specification of height) that they were buying adjacent to an area that would have "commerce". I'm just saying! I would imagine that there will be lovely landscaping (ie. trees etc) and their "view" won't be obscured...oh wait...there is also a wall all along there as well! Not sure why they'd be upset at this time! The building itself is quite lovely!

My recollection is that on old maps this property was shown as a "Financial Area" much like the banking area on 466. Might have had traffic in & out all the time. Would think this would be quieter.

[joannej]

I thought the same thing when I saw the building.

[Bonny]

I don't think anyone in there will be able to see that far. At least not very well.

Right-on Bonny.......

I think the building is an assisted living, correct? I have been the administrator of two assisted livings. They are very quiet inside and out, sometimes sadly so.
