Nowhere in the literature of TV does it say that golf carts take precedence over cars--in fact, the opposite is stated, that in all instances cars have the right of way over golf carts. There are more cars than golf carts in TV. Closing a public street off and effectively making it a golf cart path is going to cause an automobile traffic jam on 466A, not to mention a waste of gasoline and an increase in pollution.

There is a solution that will benefit all and exclude no one. I trust they will find it.
