I was just stating what I heard was the reason that the path along Megisson, passing Newell, Lake Denham and down to Dabney, does not allow golf carts. I think they said it was a Leesburg thing and that Leesburg considered the paths as sidewalks. All of this, of course, is speculation. But I definitely don't like that I have to go onto Megisson from the Sawgrass area when there is a perfectly large enough path that could be multi-modal.
I will concede though, that based on threads about the danger of carts and bikes mixing up on the paths, it makes sense the Villages may be changing strategy.
