I read the "proposal" in the paper. There did not seem to be any agreement mentioned. Leaves me wondering why the developer would want to buy the adjacent home to satisfy the proposer. Maybe there will be a suggestion that it go to the AAC to see if they would approve the expenditure. Lastly, I recall years ago going through there in my golf cart to get to doctor's office and seem to recall there was a small gate operated by resident's gate card. I think the gate was frequently damaged and don't know if it was finally eliminated. Maybe the long term residents of the area would know.

Now if you want to debate the issue intelligently, fine, but leave out the sarcastic remarks, thank you. |

The Villages is getting very crowded and when all the seasonal residents and renters arrive the cart paths look like I-4. It is only going to get worse when this development is built out. So it is understandable that some residents are sensitive about this issue. I suspect there are a great number of people who live outside the villages that use the cart paths. It was told to me by employees of our golf Administration that outsiders have been sneaking on to our golf courses. Certainly you would agree this is not right or fair? Having said that perhaps you can understand why some village residents get upset about non residents utilizing their privately and residents financed cart paths. There is also another perspective here and that is the safety factor of golf carts traveling in and around 441. Non residents have access to use public roads whether traveling by car or LSV and enjoy many of the amenities here. I can tell you I had a resident from Stone Crest literally laugh in my face after telling me I was foolish to pay all that money to live in The Villages when he purchased in Stone Crest and still could get the village's lifestyle. I support the Developer's move to build this wall and hope he does not replace it with a gate because all that is going to do is encourage some to break through the gate time and time again. I suspect the Developer had some real legitimate business reasons for his move. Personal Best Regards: |

You’re either a privately developed community with private roads maintained by its residents (like Stonecrest) or you’re a Community Development district built with tax free bonds with County roads open to the public. He can’t have it both ways. |

So I figure I need to go to the next VHA meeting. I went the web page, clicked on ever tab looking for a meeting schedule, if they have a schedule it is well hidden or they are a stealth organization.

does anyone really think that the gate proposal is going to happen? to do so, the developer's proposal must be submitted to the amenity authority committee for their approval and recomendation to the vccdd. they have the oppty to amend and return to the developer for review/approval; whence it will return to the acc for another go-round. when finally approved by the acc it will go to the vccdd with the recommendation to approve and the same review/revise/approve routine will take place. and after all is reviewed/revised/approved - the property must be deeded over - and only then can the gate be installed; which i guess will be dependent on when it can be delivered. i wonder if that one, new gate must go out for bid or if it can be tagged to the existing contract.
unless the town of lady lake determines that the wall must come down because it went up without a permit, i do not see this event taking place anytime soon. meeting dates for the acc/vccdd are available on the district govt website - not encouraging. amenity authority committee meeting schedule/agendas/minutes: http://www.districtgov.org/aac/aac.aspx vccdd webpage with links to meetings/agendas/minutes: http://www.districtgov.org/yourdistr...px?district=vc |

That will also answer Peachie's question. I'm all ears, pray tell. |
It is clear that no one can know for sure when and what will happen....I think we should all agree to "just wait and see" and go on from this post

rubicon: You might be right about breaking down the new gate by outsiders. Did not someone say that was a problem years ago when they had such a gate? I have many times thought that every golf cart should have some type of identifying sticker or plate for safety and identification reasons. A small fee for Village residents of $5.00 yearly and twice that for others outside TV. This money could be used to help maintain the trails and there would be no need for a costly gate. Just a thought. Ooops I see "shots" coming!

And while the VHS wastes a lot of time trying to implement the equivalent of a blockade into and out of public roads, it will bide time for Stonecrest to prepare their salvo.
You see, as I recently reported to everyone, the electric company that owns the land between Albi’s and WalMart has given their real estate division the go ahead to sell off the dirt golf cart path behind their distribution facility so that they can extricate themselves from the dreaded “liability Issues” that the cart trespassers present. So the Stonecrest POA will purchase that land and place an identical access gate to the one that the VCCDD erects at their end. The Stonecrest gate of course will allow Stonecrest residents in and out but deny others. No Walmart for you TV! So if TV residents think the VHA solution is fair, they should have no problem accepting my solution for Stonecrest. As the old War song goes, “What will this solve? Nothing, absolutely nothing. |
