That way all of the vaccinated can pass Covid to each other, developing their own strain. Problem with complete isolation, is they can never leave their village. No one can enter even if vaccinated due to exposure from out side. So unless they will be growing their own food, it’s not plausible.

Pet free and pet required villages would be a workable vision

They are

1) people who love them and think everyone else should love them.
2) people who don't like them and don't want other people bringing their pets onto their lawns or in stores or restaurants and they don't want to live next to neighbors who have noisy pets.
3) people who are neutral - they don't care either way.

I am attempting to come up with a solution where all sides are satisfied. Would it be possible to have one of the new villages be pet-free? You would know going in that you couldn't have a pet and that none of your neighbors could have one.

This would seem to satisfy all parties. If you loved pets, you would probably have more neighbors with pets in those villages that allowed pets. If you didn't love pets, you would live in a village where pets are not allowed - people from an adjacent village could not walk their dogs in the pet-free villages.

And if you are neutral on pets, you could decide if you wanted to live in a village that allowed pets or you could decide if you wanted to live in a pet-free village. This would seem to be a win-win-win. You could live where you wanted and everyone should be satisfied.

But would it work?


It is very easy. Follow the law. Pets are not allow in restaurants or stores unless they are service animals.

If this is an issue, you can move. Lots of places have no pets restrictions.

One would think you knew pets are huge in the villages before you bought here. So now everyone else need to change for you?

service animals are a joke

If you are going to have a pet-free village you should have a pet required village. It's only fair. How would you police these two villages?

Speaking of win win - Could you setup a village without a bunch of grumpy old people?

Pets in the villages
 
Wow :some of the replys go from no pets pet free zone no kids yelling in a pool no adult children living with their parents which may exclude parents who need their help.....maybe all who have complaints about living here for one reason or another should just go to a deserted island and you can be all by yourself thinking about just yourself and doing what you want to by yourself. SO many complaints so little time... :shrug:

Ahhh the best quote for “The Friendliest hometown” if you don’t like it leave. If you add you can move if you don’t like the

small lots, lack of shopping in the south, driving to fast or slow, south doesn’t feel like the villages, because there are no waterfalls, southern oaks is too expensive, a $4 cookie, mediocre food, can’t have white cross in my yard, or my dead pet, no public transportation, grandkids, adult kids, rv garage without permission, and no Costco, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, or if you are a snowbird, snowflake.

So you see by the list, your comments of “Now everyone else needs to change for you” fits pretty much everyone in TV.

Just because someone doesn’t agree with one’s lifestyle, shouldn’t mean they can’t live where they choose.. last I noticed TV is still in the US.
I may not like your ————— but it doesn’t give me the right to tell you to leave, anymore than you should be told to leave. Not everyone gets great neighbors, but it is one of the reasons people move 2,5 times in TV

Interesting!! How about another village where no noisy grandchildren can visit or another where no one can have any party outside or another where (fill in the blanks…….). Living in a great community is good enuf for me. Except I wish they would allow pet goats….so cute

On second thought, what a great idea! How about the new villages being built?? Leave the established ones as is then those that don’t like the present condition where they live can move down to the new communities with the new anti-pet restrictions

I feel that way about northerners but for some reason “We” have to coexist in Florida! If you don’t like other peoples “Pets”, go hide some where else……….

brianherlihy 09-09-2022 06:08 AM

i dont care. just keep your dog at your home and let him or her poop and pee at your home

me4vt 09-09-2022 06:16 AM

Go back north and hide somewhere alone! Some of use feel the same way about northerners!

me4vt 09-09-2022 06:18 AM

And them damn golf carts running up and down the streets making my Dogs bark!!

I'm a can't live without a pet owner but like #3 not my business is you have a pet. I think it would be er sell out. Maybe a small village or only less than half would sell. But just my opinion. Good question..
