Allow me to clarify this.

VCDD – Stands for Villages Community Development Districts. It is a generic term that refers to the collection of 10 numbered residential districts and the two special districts that own and/or control all the amenities in TV

VCCDD – Villages Center Community Development District (with two C’s and two D’s) the special district for the amenities north of 466.

SLCDD - Sumter Landing Community Development District the special district for the amenities south of 466.

Default "drag & drop" not working today

Off Topic,

I am having difficulty "copying and pasting" today on this site, unable to "drag" over more than one word at a time. Anyone else having this difficulty? I would like to update this Glossary with the fine submissions since last update (1.2).

Before requesting moderator help I would like to confirm that it is not just me.

Thank you for your comments, submissions and clarifications.

Updated web browser, all seems fine now.
