TV is not as rich as you want to believe and you forget that Wilwood services much more than just The Villages. So as much as you want the Wildwood PD to focus on non-conforming golf carts, I am sure that most of the other folks in Wildwood, especially those not in The Villages, would prefer they focus on more important things.

WONDERFUL !!!! Just pour the INSULTS on me. I don't CARE about Wildwood in particular or THEIR Police department. I was referring to The Villages Police. I would NOT care if the Community Services people gave out tickets for ALTERED top speed equipment. I just want SOMEBODY (some official somebody) to get behind the idea of a uniform TOP SPEED for the TV Land golf carts.
.......Residents of TV have a LEGITIMATE need for SAFETY. Officials of TV need to provide the budget and the details for that SAFETY. Safety is the main goal of ALL government units from Federal to State and LOCAL. Safety can NOT be EXCLUDED from ANY local budget. If TV Land can ENFORCE building codes for SAFETY, then, for SAFETY they can enforce golf cart speed controls. We had a recent incident of a bicyclist being seriously hurt by a negligent operation of a golf cart driver. The bicyclist has to share the multi use paths with golf carts going NORMAL speeds and the souped up fools.
........By being TV residents, they PAY for SAFETY and in this case, they are NOT receiving SAFETY. Personally, if I had a vote on whether to add more Police to enforce ALL SAFETY issues or constantly replacing flowers on the roundabouts. Or constantly having broken gates because they can't make the warning signs big enough or bright enough. Or having INSANELY tall Christmas trees just dripping with decoration MONEY.
..........I wonder, could there be MONEY taken out of the square entertainment budget. What about the MONEY for the POLO grounds, which myself and thousands of other Village RESIDENTS would NEVER set foot in. And could we do WITHOUT EVEN ONE golf course for 20 POLICEPERSONS. I know how I would vote! And now you ALL DO TOO !!!!!!!
