Good news for those of us who want to get Brownwood Commercial Space finally filled up. Also, us Southern Villagers need more Commercial Businesses on 44. Mostly everything is up North on 441 (and 466) and this would be much more convenient for us living near Brownwood. As far as Amenities...I am sure they will have their own Pools and Rec. Center so that should be a non issue. If they have their own Exec. Golf Course(s) that should not be an issue either. They will add to the load on the Championship Courses but since I don't play those, not sure if that will be a problem or not. As far as all the other negative comments, there was nothing mentioned that was of concern to me at all.
We have lived in a lot of different areas and I have never seen such a successful Developer anywhere else. They should be given a lot of credit. They are the reason we are bound for The Villages.

Mulberry Grove Rec. is even further. What would that be north to south?

Bogie, this is not a guess. I have been through it and that is why I bought in The Villages, by far the fairest around when it comes to Seasonal Residents. When the residents got control in Sun City HH it all changed for us. Tennis and Pickle Ball clubs dominated play. Open times were changed according to the weather with favoritism to Club members. Club tournaments were held and non club members were not allowed access to courts for days at a time. This was all done with the permission of the Boards of Directors who were lobbied by the permanent residents. It got so bad we moved. We were there seven years and had lots of friends but the restricted access to activities were so overwhelming we decided to leave.


Human nature being the way it is, it could also happen here regardless of the government structure.

I'm sure it will be a success as everything TV does...I don't think though that those wanting the real villages experience of 3 town squares and golf cart access to everything will appeal to them. It wouldn't to me. If I would have to drive my car almost everywhere I might as well live in Ocala.

The new village might be sharing amenities with Coleman - it looks like it's just a short cart ride away.

It sounds like they may have new and innovative ideas there that people here have wanted and the physical place may be quite beautiful. I am sure that the people who live there will be just as convinced as all of us that they have the very best village. There won't be much golf cart traffic. And probably new looks to the homes. We will see. We will see.

Yes , it may look similar to Stonecrest except that they will have access to all of TVs amenities.

The first phase, scheduled to be completed by 2024, will include 160 multi-family units and another 80 multi-family units would be added by 2029.

I hope I live to see it.
