I think they need to be redone. I too am from Mi and one of the reasons I like TV so much is how good the roads are.

We were just over there and it appears that they just sealed and striped the parking lots. It doesn't appear to have been resurfaced.

Where I live, you knew when the road gangs were coming to do the patching. A few days before work started, a surveyor came and sprayed a white ring around any hole deep enough to warrant a repair.

I have no idea how many others had the same idea as my neighbor and I, but we bought a can of white spray, and one evening went to town around the area spraying the lesser holes they missed out!
Think the idea was general in many areas, as they now mark, and number the holes in sequence, and photograph them at same time!!

Sorry the parking lots in question were repaved. Just like Nucky said. I saw them when they were torn up.

You obviously haven't been up to the Historic District lately. I agree that most of the roads in The Villages are fine and I'm wondering what all the fuss is about Morse and Buena Vista. I travel those roads daily and I see very little problems.

However, La Grande Blvd where the Post Office is, is a mess and several other streets up here are in need of resurfacing.
