Default Its not meanness to me it is an issue of liability.

If something were to happen to a Stonecrester or anyone else as they are on that stretch of path, the Villages could be held accountable.
Villagers are also told there are places they can not be, hence the "No Cars" or "No Carts" signs posted throughout the Villages. The developer has the right to protect themselves, and us, from litigation.
Stonecresters who are complaining seem to feel that they are entitled to use of the path because they were told by their developer that they would be, or maybe just because they exist.
The ads for Stonecrest play up the fact that it is cheaper to live there because they don't have to pay amenity fees. IMHO, the payment of amenity fees is the key issue here. The payment of amenity fees alone entitles a person to use the amenities. No Tickee... No Laundry! This is not a land of entitlement.
