The koolaid is not a bad thing for those that enjoy this place.....for those that constantly tear it down it must be a horrible life here. Your recourse is your CDD or write letters to the District or Developer and be prepared for them not to listen. Have glass of Kool Aid and you might be a happier person.
I am happy but don't mean I've blind.

An Apartment complex complete with Pool, Tennis Courts, Walking Trail, is being applied for.

The developer ( The Villages) is the owner.

I just hope they don’t eliminate any of the golf courses, there. That would be a terrible precedent for The Villages.

If I could, I would hit the thanks button a hundred times for that post.

Not happy with apartments. Overcrowded in that area. How can people renting in apartments pay an amenity fee and real estate taxes like the homes? Just asking!!

They don't pay taxes. The amenity fee goes with the rent (or is included in the rent). I don't think the application says apartments or townhomes or anything.

The application says "residential units". They are certainly not planning on building a couple of single family homes on the demolition site. What else could they be building besides something like the high density eyesore in Brownwood?

I think age restricted rentals would be great. If I am ever a single I certainly would not want to keep my home and the upkeep of that home, but I love my area, so for me an apartment complex with a pool, restaurant and walking trails would be great.

I am also a cool aid drinker, and have yet to be disappointed with anything the Developer has built here. I have no comment on Brownwood or the apartments there. I live on the North side, I shop on the north ide, I socialize on the north side. I like the north side.

Yup, a 286-unit rental apartment complex with a pool, tennis courts, and walking trail. What an eyesore that would be from the first T-Box of the Oaks or Lakes courses, assuming the course(s) are still there???

With the added traffic, I would hope widening Morse Blvd. and providing a proper MMP to 446 is in the plans.

Wonder who would be expected to pay for it though.

Based on their past. The County ie: The Taxpayer.

The developer always has Plan " B " in place Always.

The AAC will meet at 9 a.m. Wednesday at Savannah Center to discuss the Hacienda development. The meeting is open to the public.

This would be a good meeting for any resident to attend as the future development will have an impact on those N of 466 but more importantly this is a shift in the "families" business model as what is approved here could easily lay the footprint for similar developments throughout TV. Apparently the accounts see this new business model as a viable option for revenue enhancement, there will be more to follow. The financial benefits due to significantly enhanced density are obvious.
An important meeting for all of us to attend, the paradigm has now shifted!!!

It once was a great restaurant, a nice pool and a great looking building. WHO CARES? Everyone who lives in TV should care. I bet a multi dwelling apartment complex will appear. SAD, not glad.
