Thank goodness the Burke's BarBQ failed...it was really below the standard Villagers want and deserve... A trailer park so close to The Villages custom built homes will lower the homes resale value and add too many residents to our population. DO NOT ALLOW the Rohan family to profit from their influential family name by lowering the standards The Villages has maintained for all these years.

We live in a Motor home most of the time. We are not trailer trash. We spend a lot of money while traveling. We even wash and wax our motor home regularly so it might be cleaner than a stick built home and cost as much or more than one. We have stayed in upscale Rv resorts that TV cant compare to. We have spent a lot of money and taxes at the TV craft shows(many of the vendors live in motor homes as well), the restaurants, and other area businesses. So sorry many think lowly of us. I only feel sorry for you that if you get tired of the scenery out your front window, you cant move along like us.

Sorry, we won't come to your facilities anymore. We may be in your way. We'll spend our money somewhere else.

The RV park better have its own amenities, swimming pool etc and not try to use what the homeowners’ pay for.

Are you seriously telling me that nonVillagers, I don’t mean renters, or guests of Villagers, are ALLOWED to use our facilities such as pools? In that case we need to look at the total number of Village passes that are issued each year and how many non Villagers are issued passes. These amenities are not public in the sense that any one can use them, or that they are voluntary, and how and to who are they given and what the cost should be each year needs to be examined and published publicly. Even with deed restrictions, we are not living in a dictatorship, I hope.

My mother owns a place near Spanish springs and she shouldn't have to pay for bands at the squares when others that live outside the villages do not. Maybe the RVers or outside areas could pay a fee and be aloud to pass through to the squares. As of right now everyone gets through at all the villagers expense.
