They couldn't reschedule 3 or 4 evening pools south of 466? It's not exactly rocket science.

Regarding the comment about "just put the card up to the closed window", I have tried not opening the window and just placing the card up to the window at multiple different gates and this works about 10% of the time so overall this unfortunately does not work at MOST gates.

From the view through my knothole, a lot of the responses here would impact the few, not the many and I think the District is looking for global impact. The request for stores is personal choice and your focus should be on getting the stores to look at TV(which they probably have done). Stein Mart chose to be here not because their business development folks did a business plan that showed a profitl Lighted pools impact a small percentage in today's population plus liability laws have changed. Those that feel their choices have been neglected may find that their wants were in the minority. JMO

Would someone please build a fifth-third bank in the villages- heaven knows there are 20 other banks in here. Look at pinenellas plaza on 466a. 6 banks in walking distance- what were they thinking?

There are several gates where you have to put the card within inches of it to get them to open. One is the gate past the medical entrance on the historic side.

I'm 53 & concerned about resale if we don't keep up with our up and coming competition over the next 5 years.
Where are these resort like pools? What do you mean about "nicer Country Clubs"? Who is this "up and coming competition"? Maybe at age 53, you should have bought a home in a turnover location rather than a retirement community.

I didn't know that! Thank you.


Oops, I just thought of something. I turned in my Resident iD when I rented out my home as a long-term rental. Can I still use my ID number and PIN number to access the internet at the Rec Centers? Just curious. Mom, my aunt and I don't golf. My aunt and I get the $50 passes while we visit TV and get Mom a guest pass.

If cleaning and maintaining the pools at night is the big issue, how do the lighted pools up north do it?

Please don't question the developer's operations.

Are you going to ask for

a) more lobster restaurants?
b) more fish stores?
c) fresh lobster delivery from Maine (or Nova Scotia)?
d) all of the above?
