Veranda communities, like CYV and PV communities have the storm drains in the middle of the streets and the road is an inverted crown (lower in the center) to aid in drainage. The curbs existe as a part of the storm drain system and are an artifact of having sidewalks to prevent their flooding and undermining. As most of TV doesn't have sidewalks it's not really an issue.
Having lived in a cyv community for 11years, I've seen no disadvantages of the lack of curbs.

Carpe diem quam minimum credula postero
Society is produced by our wants, and government by wickedness; the former promotes our happiness positively by uniting our affections, the latter negatively by restraining our vices. - Thomas Paine, 1/10/1776
