Brace Yourself Here Comes the Whining - The Villages is growing again
Great news out today in the paper, The Villages is set to grow again. 8000+ more acres. Not a surprise, the developers are continuing their family business of Developing properties. Good for them for having vision and being successful in their business.
Now the whining will start - it's too big, they're greedy, blah blah blah... Break out the cheese to go with you whine. Get over it people, The Villages wasn't too big when you bought your house, but now it is, have to love the "I've got mine.." attitude of some people. Greedy, nope, just good at their business. Those with the "greedy" and "How much is enough" mind set need to look in the mirror. What were you thinking when you were amassing you retirement savings? It was OK for you to be part of a growing business and working towards your future, but when others are successful they're evil? That green eyed monster jealousy is looking back at you in the mirror. Continued growth is very good for the area, if the growth stops, unemployment will go up and with it crime; and the safety we all feel living here in TV will quickly disappear. This much growth will surely bring much needed commercial growth with it that will be good for everyone. If you haven't noticed, there is the beginnings of a decoupling process going on in TV. Do the people in the BW area really care what's happening in SS or even LSL? Do the people in the SS area really care what is going on in the BW area or Finney? More and more the answer is no. There's enough going on in everyone's local area that the distant areas of TV have little impact on our lives, this process will continue. Does this mean TV will fracture, likely not, it does mean lots of new options for recreation and commerce. This is the same process all cities go through as they grow and thrive. To the developers I wish nothing but the best of luck in this new growth spurt. Bring on the bulldozers! |

Can we now remove the words "build out" from our vocabulary? Keep going Morse family. Do not listen to the complainers. Look out Georgia, here we come.

The whole census region might be 157, though. |

Woo Hoo !!!
If land is going to be developed, I would rather the Villages develop it than anyone else. At least we know they take pride in what they build and everything is done right. I say more power to them. The whiners can just stay home if they don't like it. Almost 17 years here and I still love it. Build out??!! We don't need no stinking build out. LOL

Living north of 466, development of the Village of Fenney will have little impact on our lifestyle. More power to the Morse family for creating what looks to be a very beautiful area to live.

We lived in South Florida for 7 years, awful traffic, poor planning. Here we have good planning. Yes, it is a little difficult during snowbird season. I do have a major concern, water. Do we have sufficient water for this continued growth? Anyone up to date on this?

1. Very expensive! 2. The folks down there drive worse than the folks in TV. We have it very good here in The Villages!

You haven't seen nothing yet! Wait until the entrance and exit to the Florida Turnpike is completed. Maybe in a few years we really will get a Costco.

I was a little confused by the Daily Sun article. Is that 8000 new acres, or is Finney part of the 8000 acres?
Just curious..... |

The article states, "That includes the community's newest neighborhood, the Village of Fenney, announced last May ..." It seems clear to me that Fenney is included in the 8,000 acres.
