Default Re: Village Gates Poll

If one has ever lived in a truly gated community, one would see instantly, TV is about as gated as the revolving door at a supermarket!!!!

The gates impede no one who wants access.
They do impede the orderly flow of traffic into a village.

Yes they slow traffic...good? Bad?

No they do not provide security....maybe for some the impression they do. In Sumter County, like it or not, TV are public streets!!!

When it comes time for the residents to take ownership of some of these "features" we'll see if they are really willing to budget some of their funds to repair, replace, update gates.
I wouldn't and will be boisterous about spending money on that which does not do what is or was intended.
