Here's a quick primer on how "smart" intersection detectors work. The 'Pavement Invasive Detectors' are typically installed during construction or repaving, but can be retroactively installed also. It simply comes down to the road owner determining if one of these systems are worth the extra cost, so contacting them would be the first thing to do to get it changed.

This doesn't do anything how do we request it. Tell the developer people will be happier going to their sales office?

Developer does not control public street traffic flow.

As you said, "This doesn't do anything"

Gas is money these days and sitting at unnecessary traffic lights is a waste of gas.

Depending on time of day, early mornings it’s oriented to people going to work in The Villages.

Actually, why have any stop lights in the Villages. More collisions will slow traffic down sufficiently and give our first responders some work to do.
