Why no cement lining the paths south of 44?
Our MM Paths north of 44 have cement "ribbons" lining each side of the paths. This cement prevents the grass from invading the asphalt and gives the landscapers a sharp edge to keep the grass edged.
I personally have not driven on the cart paths south of 44 but my sister routinely takes a ride in her golf cart on Sundays south of 44. She has noticed that the paths down south do not have the cement "ribbon" along the sides of the asphalt. Without this ribbon of cement, the grass has invaded the asphalt and she told me those paths look awful. Infrastructure on the cheap is what is happening down south. Too bad.

We get no retail, gas, benches, intersection entrances. This is not even policy as the new path up north got curbs last month.

Rather than jumping to conclusions , why not just call and ask?

Sooooo..
...you think they should have built the retail, streets and pathways first, then the homes? Not the best economic plan especially for the business owners. Like building a Costco in the middle of the Mojave Desert and thinking all will flock there. Give it a few years, it will all come around.

If individual districts, which own the paths, want to put in the concrete they can do so (though I don't know if the paths fall under "common infrastructure" and would therefore fall under the jurisdiction of PWAC). |

Not sure exactly what you're talking about, but the MMP paths north of 44 do not have cement “curbs”.
They are at the same level as the grass, so the golf carts can pull up onto the grass. We’ve all seen carts pulled over. They might have curbs around the circles or the underpasses. |

Some do have the cement edging and since you admit you haven't been it might be wise to take a trip to find out for yourself. There are many long stretches of just asphalt, but not all.

There are at least one or two other Threads regarding the MM paths south of 44. Use TOTV “search” and you will find them. Bottom line a lot changed when the Developer went south of 44 some good and some maybe not so much.

I know what you are saying. I do find the "look" of The Villages south of 44 is different. Supposedly, the look is supposed to be more "natural" than more "manicured" that we have up north. As for the retail, gas and such, I keep reading on this forum that will all come in good time. Just have to wait for it.

Come to think of it......the most recent walking path in the northern section is the path that begins at the Lake Miona Rec Center. I haven't been on that path yet but wondering if that path is just asphalt with no cement ribbons. Anyone know?
