So, generally speaking, I wave to agree with this one. I think that "The Developer" would be doing a good thing if they came across with an update. Even if it is not what we want to hear, at least we would have something. It's time.

It's beyond naïve to think however, that Da Family doesn't stay in close contact with the county...on those things that might reflect poorly on TV. I'm still trying to reconcile however, your contradictory statements...in a single post. I'm sure I'm not the only one, curious as to what "facts" you have found (after supposedly) searching...that Da Family doesn't read TOTV. Please share...we'll wait. |

Honestly, I think they do.

Honestly, I think they don't. My guess is they are way too busy.

I think that is an additional duty of the IT guy. Each morning he presents a PowerPoint briefing summarizing the previous 24 hours of TOTV and TV News. In attendance at said briefing is the vast team of spin doctors who then prioritize the issues into three categories, Raving Nut Cases, Just Whining, and Empire Threatening. Further prioritization is then accomplished within the last category and a team is implemented to either develop "feel good" solutions, nominate scapegoats, or, in some cases employ red herrings or smoke and mirrors. After enjoying cognac and Cuban cigars, secret handshakes are exchanged and everyone goes on their merry way.

Villages Leadership
Want to know the Villages's leadership? Google this: The Villages of Lake-sumter Inc
All the officers are listed there, along with their email addresses. There's a Mr. Lester listed who I believe is in charge of community relations. Maybe he will respond to your questions. I'm always fascinated by how little the developer communicates. A town meeting once a year (limited, I believe, to HOA members), and with no Q&A, doesn't cut it. I speak as a former PR executive for a Fortune 10 company. Of course, he/they don't have to communicate. It's a privately held business. Then again, I wonder whether the developer gives a hoot about his reputation. |

My guess is that it's a minimum wage employee, whose daily job duties include looking at TOTV, the online newspaper and certain other media (re: Tampa Times/local papers).
IMHO, it would be pretty ridiculous (and naïve/borderline dumb) to think that Da Family doesn't try to stay right on top of what the general feelings are...by both residents and non-residents. And whatever else they may also be...Da Family isn't "dumb." It's called "opposition/competitor research" and I challenge anyone to prove that any entity, political or corporate...that isn't fully involved in doing such. So why would anyone think that TV...is any different? Anxiously awaiting for...proof otherwise. |

Ask any TV Sales agent and you’ll find they actually do read TOTV. Ask any TV Sales agent what TV upper management thinks of people that post on TOTV and you might be crushed, if you’re thin skinned.

The fact that some people really do feel that we should be grateful because "other places are worse" indicates that some people have very low standards. I don't expect a gourmet chef to come to my house and cook me my meals every day, but I do expect golf cart access to anywhere in the Villages. I don't even expect that access to be easy or quick. This is not an unreasonable expectation in a golf cart community. It should be a -minimum- expectation in a golf cart community. If you can't even set your standards to that bare minimum, then I'd say it's your standards at fault, and not anyone complaining about the situation. |
