I'm surprised at that suggestion. Wouldn't the heat thrown off from all those red lights contribute to global warming??????

Snowbirds......I think not.
That is because the snowbirds are still competent enough to drive long distances without any accidents.

Another gate that is not necessary is the gate on Morse Blvd., heading south just before 466. The gate is located AFTER the golf cart path so there is no interaction with golf cart traffic at the site of the gate. THEN, just a few yards ahead, is the traffic light at Morse and 466. No need for that gate.

not me when I’m not here, I’m not here, I never could understand people posting who don’t live here and posting when your not here ,but I also see nothing wrong with it ,everyone is different
