Post Wildwood To Reject The Villages Expansion Plans

Wildwood plans to reject The Villages plan to build close to 800 homes on the north side of CR466A, unless the plan is amended. Mayor Wolf said "the current plan fails to meet Wildwood land development regulation standards, including sidewalks and trees".

The mayor went on to say he would rather see a mixed use development built in that area. "The ball is now in their court" Wolf said.

This is according to a new article in the on-line news.

The article implies differently, as I read it anyway.

Lol, there is no way they will not give in to the morse family.
Loss of all that tax base $ at the highest rate. Morse will just tell them no. They have left other land before when pushed like this.

The article left out that representatives from Wildwood, The Villages and Trailwinds will meet during the week of April 27. The Villages wants to continue the discussions with Wildwood in an effort to obtain approval of the development plan.

Time will tell, but I think eventually the project will be approved and a quality and profitable addition (for Wildwood) will be built on this site by the Villages.

I live in Tamarind Grove and am concerned about the golf cart access path from this new section into Tamarind Grove by the pool. That would appear to be the only golf cart access to the rest of The Villages? That's a lot more traffic thru Tamarind Grove and potentially additional people using the Tamarind Grove neighborhood pool. I would like to see golf cart access from this new section to the other side of 466A / Pinellas Plaza area. Hopefully there will be some revisions before it goes thru.

The mayor actually said a line from a famous movie, Something about Mary..... his line too, " cough it up chompers"

Good... we don't need 800 more homes. We need commercial businesses.

In your backyard???
At least if the villages build we all know what will be built.
Multi housing means what,
(apartments, assisted living, mix houses)
Commercial businesses mean what,
(Target, CVS, fast food, banks, office buildings)
Wildwood is asking for sidewalks on 466A,
to go to what?
It isn't over yet.

So does anyone know is it a proposed over 55 additional so affecting amenities use or golf cart traffic through Tamarind Grove Run or family homes or apartments which would target those who work in the area and would have no affect on our amenities and add very little if any golf cart traffic.
