Additional information about The Villages, Florida
The Villages started the process of development around the 1960s. Over time, a Declaration of Restrictions has been created for each individual neighborhood, which regulates such things as landscaping, repairs and maintenance, placement of satellite dishes, hedges, etc. All homes must be occupied by at least one person who is 55 years of age or older. Persons under the age of 19 years may visit for a maximum of 30 days per year, though some portions of the development are designated for families and, thus, not subject to this restriction. An Architectural Review Committee was founded in 1994 in order to control the composition and consistency of the exterior of the residential properties within The Villages. The committee, which consists of Villages residents, is responsible for the approvals of alterations and modifications to the properties and homes built by the developer. Committee members serve for three years and are selected by the sitting committee.
