It sounds like an argument over semantics -- if you mean the paths that run beside but are not part of the road, then local law enforcement has no jurisdiction (except when you get off the path to cross a street); if you mean the paths inside the golf courses, again, no jurisdiction; if you mean the paths that are on the street and separated by a solid white line, then, yes, you could be ticketed for going 22 MPH but probably wouldn't. Go 25 plus and you just might get that very expensive ticket.
