There is no gas in homes north of 44

We had gas in our home in Lynnhaven by the old high school on 466,

This sight is getting so childish.

Could you be referring to a very small portion of homes (about 5,800) in The Villages located in Lake County for which there is no bond (and not talking about bond that has previously been paid by the homeowner) and no CDD assessments. I believe this was the result of a suit. They are located in the Northern Section and are included in Village Center Community Development District (VCCD). I think there are homes in Avenida de Las Casas that are examples of these. Since the homes are a finite number compared to all the available homes in The Villages , it might not effect your search. Best place to address your question might be with an independent realtor like Mark Gilbo who will be forthcoming.

What is the LAWSUIT all about (condensed version please)?
How does it affect new residents in the LAWSUIT FOOTPRINT...
Thanks in advance...

The lawsuit is sealed. Some residents sued the developer and won the suit over what I personally think was a pittance. (I think I remember that it was mold under the ceiling tiles at Paradise Rec Center, but don't quote me on that.)

The biggest difference is that area is run by the AAC formed by the lawsuit. With locally elected members) (Instead of the VCDD) like the entire rest of The Villages.

Please allow me to say I don't really like the general views and attitudes that I read in the POA .

Residents north of CR 466 sued the developer for maintenance issues many years ago and won the lawsuit.

Never heard about any lawsuit.

The AAC was formed as a result of the lawsuit. It only governs THAT part of the Villages.

I wonder if this is a FAKE Rumor started by people trying to sell new homes in the South end of The Villages??? Golfers shopping for homes in The Villages should NOT purchase a New Home in the Southern Areas, which lack enough Executive Golf Courses. Rather, they should buy a preowned home in the Middle or Northern areas which have plenty of Executive golf courses nearby. Also, the Bond is usually paid off on homes in the North and Middle areas, plus you are MUCH CLOSER to Shopping & Restaurants and the landscaping, along with other expensive improvements have been added. Make sure that you include the cost of the BOND when shopping for a home in The Villages, because it is DEBT that you will be assuming that is over and above the purchase price when you buy your home.

Linden has gas lines in our attic. I was surprised but no issues in 4 years.

Here is an excerpt from March 2008 Tampa Bay Times. Most people on this thread do not know about this. Better off researching yourself.

The companies that run this sprawling central Florida retirement community have agreed to pay $40-million to cover improvements and repairs, as part of a lawsuit settlement.

A circuit judge in Lake County approved the settlement of a class-action lawsuit that claimed the monthly amenity fees paid by The Villages' 70,000 residents had been misused by The Villages of Lake-Sumter Inc., the Village Center Community Development District and developer H. Gary Morse.

The settlement approved last week requires the developer to pay about $40-million over the next 13 years to replenish maintenance accounts. It also requires the defendants to pay $50,000 each to five plaintiffs and $6.7-million to the plaintiffs' attorneys.

Dead wrong, buddy. We live in Springdale, which is way north of 44 in Marion County and we heat and cook with gas.

Never heard of that. Get your information from the sales office about deed restrictions and such,not from here.
