It was going to be $19M to renovate or $20M for all new, kind of a no brainer. So much has changed over 39 years as to what is being put into rec centers so it will be nice for the residents in the historic section.

The developer is the owner and using reputable contractors to oversee the rebuilding the recreation center.

I don’t believe The Developer owns Paradise. (I have no facts to verify this)

Rebuilding within current building standards
 
Perhaps interior renovations would be cheaper but complete rebuilding using current stringent hurricane proof building standards may be more practical.

The Village Center Community Development District (District) is the unit of local government.

The developer is not the owner. We own this rec car and AAC is responsible for its maintenance, etc.

Please take some time to become more informed about how our community works. It will save you some negative emotions caused by misunderstanding - something that is all too common.
