1/ There is no business that cleans gutters in The Villages that I know of. 2/ There is no business in The Villages that cleans up dog poop in their yards. 3/ There is no business in The Villages that serves DEEP DISH pizza. 4/ There is no business in The Villages that customizes golf balls. 5/ There is no business in The Villages that has a mobile ice cream truck.

I would not advise a baby shower business.

South of 44 is a perfect area for a number of new businesses. Fast food of any kind, sub shops, barber, auto repair, bike shop, small engine/lawnmower repair shop, quality brushless car wash and detailing service, something similar to Dick's sporting goods, RC Planes and cars shop, quality furniture store, and more. With all the building going on both in The Villages and the surrounding areas south of 44, it's taking longer to get to northern destinations and any new business down here should do very well.

I'm talking about a regular ice cream truck that has a route and schedule.

There was one that used to come around 4 years ago but I think Wildwood stopped it, permitting reasons or something like that. There was also a fellow that would drive around with a BBQ rib set up behind his truck and sold ribs, that too was stopped by Wildwood.

A good hardware 2-3 miles south of 44 would be great. Also could use a Wendy's. (With both being golf cart accessible). --- Must be some kind of zoning and golf cart restriction situation?
