The Developer took the thin grey line and expanded it to the heavens.

The time line went something like this:

“Let’s use cards instead of paying gate workers.”
“Let’s have the county maintain the roads”.
“If taxpayers pay for maintenance, then any taxpayer can use the road.”

The micro of one development of houses has evolved through fruition as the macro of more than 130,000 homes and hundreds of miles of roads.
