Nope. Gotta fully agree with Gracie. When this manure starts up it's only for one reason..to stir the pot. Factual legal information on the developer and the CDD/IRS theme are NOT going to be found here. The only reason this starts up is to pour gasoline on the fire.

Does the OP really sound like someone trying to pour gasoline on the fire?

I had an aunt that had her bank account cleaned out after her husband died and the obit was posted online. Using just a little bit of basic information someone got my uncles birth certificate and set up a fake id went to the bank and cleaned out the account. She got all of her money back but it took weeks.

It is really easy to get scammed from the Internet. I would hate to see that happen to anyone from TOTV. Just a word to the wise.

Any crazy stalker who reads your blogs can put these details together and figure out where you live and track you down.

Really?? This is quite a bit of fearmongering.
I don't really think there is a plethora of "crazy stalkers reading this blog or any others in The Villages trying to find out where people live to track them down!"
Frankly, in many cases, all they would have to do is open the phone book!

If you cannot play nice on TOTV, then please don't play at all.

Frankly, I don't consider your post as "playing nice". In fact I find it rude and harrassing.

But as far as internet security, consider the following. Many of you folks have indicated where you live and even posted pictures of your home interior. Then you respond to someone's post regarding the cruise to Alaska on such and such a date. "Yes, we're going", etc. Why not just take out an ad in the Daily Sun and say "Hey, we're going to be gone on these dates, here is where we live, come on over and rob us". It has been well publicized that thieves and criminals peruse internet chat rooms looking for easy targets. I'm just suggesting that perhaps some might want to be a little more careful about what information they put out there.

My favorite ice cream is pecan praline, and I like it in a cup, not a cone!

It use to be sink holes under new homes, they went away. Then it was the big game hunting out west, it went away. Then STDs it went away. Now the IRS issue, it will go away. Enjoy The Villages.
