The gates in that area are horizontal gates. They are very big and swing open like a door; very, very slowly. It would take a fool to try and ram the gate with a golf cart. I saw the gate this afternoon and the perimeter isn't damaged. It looks like there are three center rails that have been removed in order to replace them. They are in the very center of the gate.

My guess, and yes it is a guess, would be that someone went through too fast and rammed the center of the gate and caused some damage and it is being repaired. You'd have to see the gates to understand how ludicrous it is to even begin to think someone would ram it on purpose.
