How do you get supplies to the houses? Presumably you aren't going to want delivery vans driving over the nice grass.

Pneumatic tubes (not sarcastic)? What about when someone needs a new mattress?

You'd be surprised what you can accomplish with a cargo bike.

Fair. And I think that would work for the day to day stuff. You would probably still need a central depot (basically a wal-mart) to get things in to town efficiently. It would probably need a road, but we could limit things fairly well.

But that's why I brought up mattresses.
