What?
The original author is a District 2 Supervisor. Obviously he does NOT understand how The Villages works. He also proposed putting a Gambling Casino in the Hacienda Hills Country Club or where Katie Belle's was originally located. Doesn't he know that such gambling is illegal in Florida (except by license on tribal lands)? Think The Villages Operating Company would turn over that building to the Seminole Tribe of Florida so they can take a share of Villagers' wealth? That long dissertation just rambles and makes no sense to me.

I like the concept of the apartments in SS but unless they are soundproofed, I cannot fathom why anyone would want to be inflicted with the noise from the music in the Square, daily, until 9 PM.
That would be an absolute nightmare for me. |

Ten years ago, I would park in the Publix parking lot if I had to. I never minded walking. Katie Belles was worth the walk. Then, slowly KBs and even I changed - both becoming less energetic and interesting.

Can you show us in the budgets where residents' funds go to maintenance of privately owned buildings.

Spanish Springs...along with that whole northern tier of TV...is a ghetto now.
The real villages is now south of 466a and 44. No one cares anymore about north of 466. All the bad news comes from there. The Esteemed Developer would bulldoze it down in a heartbeat.

according to a Google search I just performed, Spanish Springs was built in 1994, which makes it about 27 years old. 27 years in a retirement community is several lifetimes, and several different "classes" of retirees. I figure about every 5-7 years you get a "class" of retirees, whose life experiences are different enough to account for different tastes. As teens growing up, that period of time creates differences in fashions, music, and even political thinking. 27 years would account for 4 or 5 such transitions, and it's reasonable to assume that what "rocked" for retirees in 1994 probably won't rock for retirees in 2021 and beyond.
The most efficient way to "kill" Spanish Springs would have been to be locked into the original concept, for 30 years or more , and think that would continue to be attractive. |

The second stories are Villages employees that were relocated. I much preferred the new Katie Belles they good food and entertainment. They failed because Villagers would not spend the money for more expensive entree's. I hope the apts succeed. If I was single I would move there.

From what I "heard" ( ), there is already a waiting list for when they get built. If I could afford it I would rent there also.

LOL. If any of you folks in "the hood" north of 466 want to sell your crib at the discounted "ghetto" price please contact me.
