I have been reading and trying to keep up with this thread all week, but you folks have been so busy posting that it's dang near impossible. I have read many speculations and suppositions as to why "The Wall" was erected. I don't know if it was within this tread or another one, but I am of the opinion that it was erected and now the gate is going to be erected because of the proposed purchase of the property south of CR466A. The City of Fruitland Park is supposed to be voting whether to allow The Villages to purchase the land across from Burke's Barbecue. They were hoping that their residents would have access via golf cart path to Colony's Publix grocery store. They were told by the developer that that will not be the case. I'm thinking that is why the "hole in the wall" over on the historic section was plugged. That way the developer can say that no outsiders are allowed to utilize the cart paths that are paid for and maintained by The Villages residents maintenance fees.

Now, I know some people are going to say that anyone (over the age of 25) can come and rent a cart and use our paths. That's true, but I firmly believe that part of that rental fee is going to the developer for the maintenance of the paths, whether directly or indirectly.

are you including businesses that rent carts and are not affiliated with the villages kicking back a part of their rental fee for that path maintenance?

What everyone should really worry about is that this Murray Construction has attempted to file for demolition to build a single family home on this site!!!!

No, I was primarily thinking of The Villages Golf Cart Store. Probably most of the rentals you are referring to are to people that are renting houses and, therefore, have maintenance fees paid. I don't know if any of those rent by the day like the golf cart store does.

On the other post about the wall there is an uploaded document Resolution 98-106. It indicates that the land belonged to Lady Lake and they vacated it and gave it to Leesburg Regional Medical Center for the purpose of use as a Golf Cart Path. I don't believe based on the document that they will get a permit to build anything. They will be able to make a movie about this after this is all over.

I read that as saying that the Leesburg RMC owned the property and vacated it to the Town for use as a golf cart path. The Developer, therefore, was trespassing and incurs all costs!

Who is Murray Construction? Do they own the property? If not how can they apply for a permit to demolish the wall and build a home on land that they do not own? Something doesn't sound right about that story.

A business with a "fictitious business name" is a real, live business. "Fictitious" refers to naming a business something other than the registered business name:

From Register Your Fictitious or "Doing Business As" (DBA) Name | SBA.gov :

"A fictitious name (or assumed name, trade name or DBA name) is a business name that is different from your personal name, the names of your partners or the officially registered name of your LLC or corporation."

Default For those that do not know yet THE WALL HAS BEEN REMOVED

Apparently, TV did not have a permit to build wall, so he has lost this round. I spoke to the police who were there when it was being removed and asked if a gate was going to be put up instead and he said I doubt it as all roads in all of the villages, including Orange Blossom, are PUBLIC access.

Take a look at this company: Murray Construction in The Villages

That appears to be a real company to me.

I would think that if he is working for Mr Morse he can certainly apply for permits.
