IN OUR PAST HISTORY, WE HAVE STUDIED THE GATED COMMUNITY CONCEPT.  AT THAT TIME, WE DID NOT PURSUE THIS CONCEPT.  THERE ARE SOME CITIZENS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN STUDYING THIS CONCEPT AGAIN. 

 

WHAT DO OTHER CITIZENS FEEL ABOUT THIS ISSUE?  WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT SOME GENERAL FEELINGS ARE ON THIS ISSUE. 

 

This sounds like a splendid idea.  I think the big drawback is that maintenance and repair of the streets (the paving) has to be paid for by the residents, rather than the city.  For that reason, you sometimes see roads in disrepair in gated communities.  Take a look at the one on the north side of Randol Mill just west of 820.  (I can't remember the name; it's the one to the north across the street from Woodhaven.)  I drove through there a few years ago and the streets were in horrible condition.
