However, the route you have been taking to Lowes, Walmart and Aldi's has been going across private property; not Villages property and certainly not a cart path. In other words, you have been trespassing all this time. The property owners have graciously allowed you to drive across their property. Seems to me, they have reconsidered and closed access.
For sure, this closure does not impact me and I understand that something similar could happen where I live. But, I relocated when I moved to TV and I can relocate again, if need be.
I'm not unsympathetic, but this is just business and nothing personal....

While it's true that we may have been going across private property to get to Lowe's, Aldi and several other businesses, the new wall prevents us from getting to the Villages owned medical center. The cart gate is well before the private property and the wall is on Villages property. It prevents us from getting onto Villages property before we hit anyone else's property. It would be similar to having a wall erected that prevents us from getting into the Target shopping plaza and a property beyond it.
It is doubtful that the wall was constructed by anyone other then the Villages.
Also as has been noted in another post, it's not trespassing if you are allowed to do it. In fact, I have been told that the owners of the new assisted living facility have gone out of their way to make it easy for golf carts to get to and go through their property.
