I agree with your comments about sense of community. But there is always going to be a cutoff point financially, over spending money on a minority of community members. The numbers of people that drive carts at night are a fraction of those that drive during the day. And of those that drive at night, what percentage have trouble navigating the recreational trails? And most importantly, do we have a high accident rate attributable to poor night time visibility? I suspect not. I have not seen the engineering study, but I know of the engineering firm and it is a good one. If there is doubt about the results of the study, more accident data should be collected and the matter can be looked at in a few years down the road.
