True about TV charter school. When Southern Lifestyle closed any employee that had a child in charter school had to relocate By last day of employment

[Barefoot]

It seems that granddad is making the eight-year old child his first priority.
So sad that the child has to suffer through this dispute. Childhood should be a happy time.

None of us really know the particulars about this. The only thing we know FOR SURE is that the child is living there and it is against deed restrictions. Fines and liens can be filed, iF someone reports the child living there. I have heard that it is very difficult to remove squatters. Perhaps the grandfather doesn't want to file a charge?

I read the article that cited the CDD officials (our elected officials that represent us) have no control over this internal deed restriction and thus wrote a letter to the developer quite some time ago about a similar situation. To date no response back. Should not the officials have lodge a complaint with HUD also?

The Mother works in the The Villages which allows the Child to attend the Charter School. The Mother brings the Child to School now since Grandpa is out of the Picture.

Even if a parent works for TV they can't live in 55 and over communities if under 19 yrs old. That is why The Villages has family villages like Buffalo Ridge. Also residents in these neighborhoods are not allowed to use TV amenities.

Yes. That is correct. Meanwhile the fines are piling up. Just heard from someone who lives nearby that the owner of the home is a great guy according to neighborhood assessment. I only believe gossip if it is positive. As I have said at least three times on this thread there is more to the story. I can see from miles away that if the grandmother was alive that girl (the mother of the child and daughter of the guy who owns the house) would be in a pickle and spanked and sent on her way. What MOST people have done in the past in a similar situation is sell the house and move to a home where children are allowed if they do not want to make the little one move. There is an answer to their dilemma, but there must be a reason why the processes of deed restriction are brought to a halt here. If we wait, sooner or later we will know the answer. Or like most people, we will jump to our own conclusion. Do you think dark money is involved?

Dark money ? Me thinks it should be as easy as an "off the shelf" solution.

That was meant to be funny, McGee.

News Flash. The school does’t enforce the where you live rule only that you work in TV. The other part is up to the District. Unless someone complains about a Child living where they don’t belong along with all the othe violations that occur it doesn’t get fixed. Even when violations are reported sometimes it’s a long process to get it fixed

It seems to me that the schools should enforce the "where you live" rule.

Apparently, this 8 year old has lived in The Villages his entire life. I guess the neighbors and the school he attends were both complicit in allowing his mother to violate the rules.

Students from Ocala to Bushnell and probably further go to this school as long as a parent works in a qualifying business the list is on the school web site

This is not the first instance of underage children secretly living in The Villages, although with all the "Trolls" living here, I find it hard to believe they are not discovered. I lost friendship with a couple because I disagreed with them when they told me that their neighbor takes care of her young grandchildren who live in her house. My former friends found nothing wrong with this. SORRY, I love children and worked with them for 37 years, but now I want to live with adults. My 7 grandchildren are welcome any time, but not for more than 30 days a year.

Should Lake County Children’s Services be involved? 352-742-6520

Dad may be forbidden to enter his house but he could turn off the electricity and water.

The rule is whether one works in or for TV.....not where they live.
