It has been reported that District 8 will side stripe their multi-modal path. For newbies, it will be easier for us to tell when we are in District 8. I hope my District 10 goes with a different color.

Good for District 8. Maybe when others see how beneficial the striping can be others will have a change of heart.

As far as I'm concerned, there is a board that shouldn't get re-elected. I'm embarrassed to say I live in district 8. Major waste of my money.

I have to say since we have been coming to TV since 2007. I can't remember ever running off the side of the path with my golf cart. And I'm not sure the line going along the path is going to stop anybody from going off or staying on your side. But it would be amusing if we do have to pay for this and since we have no control that each district have a different color. (maybe yellow with smily faces or green with dollar signs). Maybe you could find some humor in our dollars that has been spent, whether agree or not.

There will be three members of that board that will not get re-elected; as the saying does, they peed in their Wheaties on this one. It's one thing to spend someone else's money if the situation warrants it; going rogue to spend someone else's money that's not justified - enjoy the remainder of your time in office. IMHO, it would be far more safer to put that stripe down the center of the MMP; at least the multitude of people that can't see would know to stay left of the centerline to be in their own lane.

The elected officials are charged with the stewardship of the home owner's contributed funds and as such should be prioritizing the needed projects for the district. I would like to know what the number project would be behind this frivolous stripping project.

If anyone wants to see the benefit of stiping I suggest driving in the dark down the MMPs and then drive down Enrique Drive which has a nice white line designating the cart lane. It is much easier to know where you are to drive.

That is on the street and not MMP....which already has a very definitive, cement edge. And if folks don't know where to drive they need to seriously consider giving it up....the side stripes will do nothing for the absence of ability.

But I think this kind of post is an insult to good cart drivers who in certain locations and under certain circumstances have a bit of difficulty following the edge of the path. IMHO those situations do exist. Last edited by Polar Bear; 09-04-2015 at 10:21 PM. |

I KNOW IT IS A STREET, The point that I am making that the white stripe very clearly defines the left edge of the cart lane. It is clearly visible and can be seen for many more feet ahead than can the unmarked edge of the MMPs. With landscaping darkening the MMPs, curves and undulations there are definite areas where the edge is hard to see. Come on up, or down, what ever the case may be. I'll meet you there at 6:15 am and we will take a drive around the area. Of course I am going to drive behind you so my lights shine in your mirrors making it harder for you to see.
