I thought I heard wingnut state there will be 30,000 more homes down meggison, that’s a huge amount of new homes

He said 13,000 in his video

The Morse Clan is now overbuilding the new villages South of CR-44 with the lack of building enough Shopping, Rec. Centers and Restaurants to entice new purchasers. These people need to drive North.

The 2 original owners of "The Villages" built these attractions to entice sales of homes yet to be built.

Shamefully now that the "Morse Clan" presently only wants to sell homes without providing the required facilities for new residents. This forces these people to travel to 466 or 466A and 441 to shop overcrowding the roads.

This was one reason we moved out of "The Villages" in 2020.

And yet here you are. By the way, your claims are not true.

I can confirm this. The other day I saw him out there with his Radar Gun. He sorta looked like this https://youtu.be/MJIEoBIK164.

Get a life. Too many people minding other people's business when they can't keep their own life in order!

Just a quick correction....Meggison has a 30mph maximum speed limit through the Leesburg villages.

It's also a gated Villages entry.

Sawgrass area crossing
 
Yep, Sawgrass area needs a car/cart Stop light - like the one at Colony Rec. center.
» without one, It will surely be a nightmare when the new (Southern Oaks) Bridge opens.

Not only does everyone on cart have to cross Meggison at Citrus Grove to continue down, but this will also be a gateway for crossing over the turnpike to get to Middleton and Eastport when they open.

Who is included in the 145K number? Are these full time resident numbers? Are seasonal people included at all? The word "resident" could mean so many things.

I am in Citrus Grove and I made sure that I was not close to Meggison because of the potential traffic there. I think you will get used to it though. We are not in the city so at least not so bad. There is no rush hour traffic like in a city where people have to get to work.

Would it make any difference if you knew?

Kind of obvious that the turnpike acting as a natural barrier has caused the developer to squeeze as many homes as possible into the available area, cutting corners wherever possible, eg
the baby town square of the aptly named sawgrass grove.

That was never called a town square…….
