Yes, warming (recent man-made warming) IS undeniable. And it is always wrong to say that the problem of broken gates can be solved simply by Seniors getting eye exams. That is like saying after age 65 that ALL Villagers MUST relocate away from the Villages. We all know that perfection only exists in the afterlife, so we must be ready to give a helping hand up to Villagers with limited vision due to advancing age (no fault of their own). One possibility would be a useful, efficient bus line for residents who would gladly sell their car in favor of buses. Another possibility is to realize that many roads and streets are designed like ONLY 25-year-olds are driving on them. A lot of improvement (at a small cost) could be done in that area.
........There are a multitude of ways that TV Land could be improved for the PLUS 65 crowd. I really wonder if any of the POWERS THAT BE are EVEN interested in LISTENING to them. They do vote and they DO have POWER.
.........It appears that rapid development (and cutting home quality) are the current mantras and NOT resident life QUALITY.
