The issue of the private or public cart paths became an issue by some upset at a gate possibly going up.
Last but not least should the resolution 98-106, or whatever it is, be said to not allow a gate my question then is just what exactly precludes the parties responsible from changing or eliminating said resolution?

That’s not what the Sheriff’s office said. They have traffic jurisdiction over two types of properties. Those that are owned by the county in which they serve and those that are owned by entities in their county that have formally requested traffic jurisdiction.
Look, you know all those stop signs in the parking areas all over the place down here. Well if Publix that owns a parking lot formally requests traffic jurisdiction in there then a deputy can issue you a stop sign violation. But if Publix doesn’t grant that jurisdiction, it doesn’t change the public access status of that parking lot now does it.
