Are there any pathed pathways or plans to pave them? Are the "designated pathways" actually paved because I could have swarn they weren't two summers ago.

There aren't any strictly paved paths there, they're all covered in stones with pavement underneath.

Run a cotton ball around the inside of the tire, might be something tiny and sharp that you can't see. And definitely inflate to the recommended pressure on the tire. A good floor pump is an essential piece of equipment.
