About 25% of the parcels are owned by private individuals who rumor says are OK with folks enjoying the natural area for hiking and dog walking. Duke energy own a large swath over which they run high tension power lines and support several towers. The Villages of Lake-Sumter Inc. owns most of the rest of the land parcels. The land adjacent to the Rio Grand postal center, air rifle range, and the croquet/bowling lawn are owned and controlled by The Villages. I do not believe it is a environmentally protected area although there is a variety of wildlife living there. There are also several footpaths through the land that most people stay on. I've never seen anyone tease, abuse, or otherwise annoy any of the wildlife in this area.

:agree:
EVERYONE, please read this! It is a concise and accurate description of the property.

Please carefully read post #27. There are many owners of small parcels, even though it appears to be one parcel.

No grey area......

The plot had been hot topic in pass I think the problem is That area has several property owners, from undeveloped trailer park what I read, that’s why it never was developed into row housing. You can’t pin down one owner who In charge of the whole area. Maybe the developers own most of it but not lots they sold years ago.

What makes you think the owner welcomes people to trespass on their property? What gives you the right to enter another person's property without permission? I guess it would be OK for someone to walk their dog in your yard using your rationalization for your actions.
