Default A honey pot on the end of a drive way in Mallory Square

This has been sitting on the end of this resident's driveways for days. It is not being used. Nor has it been touched. Can I report this? If so to whom? It's an eyesore.

It is the law, OP. You will survive this.

There has been one on my street for over 4 months while T&D builds a pool.

The Villages just called..... they want to redo the closing. Turns out they now consider that house a 3 bedroom - 2 & 1/2 bath.

Hopefully, not your street. For Winnie's sake. Actually, on second thought, he'd probably have nothing to worry about. LOL

To answer your questions, you can:
1) talk to the homeowner and ask what’s going on; just a conversation, not an accusation. Start by introducing yourself, and say that has been sitting there for awhile and you were curious about how long it will be there
2) call the number on the porta potty and ask them what’s going on and how long do they expect it to be there
3) call your district supervisor (Village Community Development Districts) and discuss with him/her

Up to you as the action you wish to take.

P.S. if you talk to this homeowner the way you talked to graciegirl, I don’t think you’ll get a satisfactory outcome.

This is a common occurrence here in The Villages. When our pool was built, we had a portajohn in front of our house. When several neighbors had pools built, they had the same thing. You need to Suck it up, Buttercup.

It looks like the OP is new and maybe a bit naive. I will give a pass on his attack on Gracie because of that and his reluctance to talk to his neighbor or call the number on the door.

I would support a concept in part of The Villages that would not allow these major, disruptive renovation projects. I have looked a new homes, and thought, as soon as I move in, the guy next door is going to install a pool and locate the pump within 10 feet of my bedroom window.

If the homeowner is present (not out of town), it has been placed there for contractors who will follow. There is always the possibility that it was delivered to the wrong address if the homeowner isn't there and hasn't complained.

I'm sorry that I don't have an answer to your question, but when I was in TV last month I noticed a truck full of those same porta-potties that someone was driving around and placing at random places. Wish now I would have asked what it was all about. One was placed next door to my patio villa (not like there's a pool or major renovation going on there). I also noticed in my travels there were others placed throughout the area just below 466a.

Looks like others have already given you some good suggestions on where you could call for answers.

Basically, it seems as though there is nothing you can do. I think you just need to live with it.
