I imagine solar powered lights could be added without a lot of expense to the gate arm. I've seen several broken arms so it must be an issue... Is there a department in the Villages where a person could voice their concerns? Thanks.

The gates are often in the shade of large trees and therefore hard to see, so orange paint plus reflectors at night should help. And I can't stand the idea that we can't fix this because we have ALWAYS done it this was, and regulations don't allow us to try new things. Damn the stupid regulations, lives are being lost, fix the DAMN things
. ......Are WE in charge of our lives in the Villages or are we controlled by stupid, useless regulation.
......It's a PROBLEM. So, TRY A new approach. Is that so radical?
