They should have cut their losses (and saved paint) by just using the green circle and arrow.

That would be my take on it. I have one recreational route that I ride frequently that has about 4 different colors of arrows on it, they re-mark them every couple of years. One of the routes I know for a fact is a Randonneur permanent.

On the other hand, we do have some randonneuring permanents that were originally (and may still be) local club rides and local charity-ride routes.

It could be done, but it'd be kind of unusual to have any kind of road markings on a permanent. If it's ridden infrequently, nobody would bother marking it; if it's ridden often, everyone has it memorized.
On the other hand, we do have some randonneuring permanents that were originally (and may still be) local club rides and local charity-ride routes.
