How about we take the gates down and put up speed bumps. You would save money on keep putting the gates back up. Stop the back ups.
Long ago they were there and them removed.

Still wondering why some villages have the house and many do not.

Maybe habitat can build some.:icon_wink:

Maybe in your fantasy world, but not in the real world...

i agree. The friendly gate keepers express a visitor/ buyers first hand experience with " america's friendliest home town' concept

OK how about we call them Community "whatever" vehicles that drive around and add little security to the Community. I don't care what their name is - their function seems weak. If anyone was sincere about preventing crime and spotting the many physical flaws in the roads and various ways to improve TV Land, riding around in an air-conditioned vehicle is NOT the best way. Riding on quiet motorcycles or cycles would be MUCH better for seeing and being really in the moment of sensing problems and finding solutions for TV Land. Some vehicles would still be needed to back up the 2 wheel patrols of course. I am just saying that to accomplish their goals, they need to adjust their system big-time. As currently configured, they seem inept and only for show - they could be so much more!

Will the day ever come when people take the time to educate themselves on a topic before making a complaint?

Traffic Circles --

Thank you for a comment that makes sense!

The circles in TV are too small for them to be safe because the access roads into the circles are too close together. We won't talk about that no one seems to know how to navigate them but that's another story that has been beaten to death.

Yup . . . "Regardless" . . . Heh, heh, heh!
Thank you for that. I didn't want to do it.
