We have yet to see the number increase for people with golf carts who will soon live here and pay to live here. (As Carl and Don have so reasonably pointed out.)


Some things are not a right. They are a privilege.


I am all for having easily identified numbers applied to all Villages carts...as long as it doesn't get to be a bureaucratic mess.
I'm also all for having some type of ID system for golf carts. I'm confident there is a way to do it. I agree that useing a golf cart on village paths and the public streets within is a privilege Gracie.
