Gorda Developer's Jim Sanders in a 2012 interview, sales efforts were severely impacted by the Oil Crisis of 1973, causing cutbacks in planned infrastructure and continued expansion of the next four villages. Although platted and recorded, Pinewood Village and Palm Village (east of Cypress and Oak Village), Orange Village and Meadow Run Village (south of Oak Village in Hernando County, FL), never came to fruition. In 1986, Punta Gorda Developers, Inc., sold approximately of what would have been Orange Village in Hernando County to the Orange Meadows Corporation of Florida. That property would be partially developed as Seville and The Dunes Golf Club, which ultimately stalled and, with the exception of a couple dozen homes, became a ghost development. In 1994, Punta Gorda Developers, Inc., assigned all common grounds and legal rights for Cypress Village to the Cypress Village Property Owners Association (CVPOA). In 2002, Florida Landmark Communities, Inc. (successor by merger to Sugarmill Woods Communities, Inc., f/k/a Lehigh Land & Investment, Inc.), assigned all common grounds and rights to Sugarmill Woods Oak Village Association, Inc. In 2005, National Recreational Properties of Sugarmill, LLC (via Florida Landmark Properties, Inc., and Sugarmill Woods Communities, Inc.) assigned all property and rights to Southern Woods Property Owners, Inc. While a large portion of the eastern regions of the original Twin County Ranch remains pastoral ranch land, the aborted Pinewood and Palm Villages eventually became integrated as part of the Withlacoochee State Forest. Architecture Greenbelt Sugarmill Woods became one of the first developments in the United States with intentions to plat greenbelt acreage behind every single-family residence. According to Jim Sanders in a 2012 interview, the greenbelt was designed for added buffer space, privacy, beauty, and trails for exploring by hiking and horseback riding. Streets In his interview, Sanders said many of the street names in Sugarmill Woods were sourced from floral nomenclature. Several streets were also named to honor of early residents, and a few others are concentric to golf. Douglas Street was named for Dr. Douglas, a local dentist. Beverly and Holly were named after his daughters. Sanders Court is named after James (Jim) Sanders, former president and Chairman of Sugarmill Woods, Inc., and earlier, Vice President and Project Manager of Punta Gorda Developers, Inc. Streets named Linder are named after P. Scott Linder, former Director at Punta Gorda Developers. Golf-themed thoroughfares include Golfview, Balata, Masters, Murfield, and Winged Foot. Sugarmill Woods
