Has citizens you are paying good money to the township and counties to watch over the permitting and building of amenities and structures. If they are not doing their jobs then the township should end up being sued and paid for replacing these or does anyone else have any common Sense ideas and how to get things done here. I certainly wouldn't trust the builders with my home without getting something inspected by the county and townships building departments.

Thank you. My feelings.

Go look at any other senior communities around the country, and see what "not doing maintenance" looks like. The fact that The Villages are kept in good repair and updated help our home values stay up. The Villages are attractive and that is a big part of why I moved here.

Risk all your money, start your own village, and be happy. You are obviously much smarter than the developer. But you might find people will bitch and complain about your every move.
