Colony Plaza provides Panera Bread and Cody's Original Roadhouse within cart range; Lake Sumter Landing's commercial side includes Barnes & Noble. Bond assessments in Bonita run about $855 to $1,381 per year under District 7's Series 2015 schedule, scheduled to reach zero in 2036 — the villa sections (Kenya, Bonita, Anita, and Pilar Villas) sit at the lower end, about $855 to $891 per year.
