As for speeding carts....who really cares? Somehow, someone driving a cart at 25mph doesn't get my blood pressure up. We already have laws for that and the Sheriff is in charge of enforcing the laws.

Who would administer such a program? This would be a huge administrative nightmare. I don't believe The Villages would touch this with a 10ft. pole! The districts would never be able to agree on anything of this magnitude. They can't even agree to stripping the cart paths for increased safety.

Resident infraction reporting...to whom would you report? The Sheriff? I'm sure they would like that... This would be similar to the deed restriction, which are complaint driven. No one really wants to report their neighbor, unless it's really bad.

So, this is one of those things I see as not broken; therefore, no fix required.

Just an opinion and not something I would be willing to pay [or vote] for, given the choice.

Very good thoughts.
