What are Community Development Districts?
In The Villages, there are 13 residential and commercial community development districts that act as a unique form of government in The Villages. CDD’s have the power to plan, finance, construct, operate and control community-infrastructure and services for people who live in their districts. These services include recreation facilities, executive golf courses, road improvements, sidewalk and street maintenance, street lighting, water management, and more. Although the CDD isn’t allowed by law to have police, they are permitted to have emergency services, fire safety, and community watch programs. Each CDD is governed by a board of supervisors elected by residents within each CDD.
If you are interested in learning more about how CDD’s operate, there are monthly CDD meetings. Each districts day and time are posted on the District website at districtgov.org. Additionally, the District publishes the District Weekly, updating on CDD activities. For further education, the District offers the Resident Academy, a two-day interactive program which gives residents an in-depth understanding of the district government.
