The Devoper does not control the executive courses

oh, here we go again....bash the developer

ya wanna increase your chances of avoiding covid-19???

stay home, practice social distancing, wear protective masks and gloves when you shop for food, wash your hands for a full 20 seconds,...don't accept any visitors...take a walk to get exercise...this is not difficult

the developer is not your 'mommy'...nor does the developer have any control over what you do / don't do

I say to all....stop pointing a finger at the developer...we all are at an age where we should have grown up and are able to act like clear thinking adults

Does anyone know if they are still collecting for use of golf carts by using a credit card on courses south of State Route 44?

Called Gray Fox this morning, and they will accept credit card only.

Why would you do something like call the source and get factual information? You will ruin this thread.

Since I can’t pay my annual trail fee, why doesn’t TV waive those of us who have expired trail fees?
Also, how about being reimbursed our Amenities for every month the offices and all Rec. centers are closed.

You can pay the trail fee by phone using a credit card. Send an email to Villages Customer Service with your phone number and they will phone you. customerservice@districtgov.org

How do you pay then? Do you use a credit card to pay the $4 trail fee?

Fron Turf Talk:
Effective April 8th, there will be no exchange of cash for payment of a daily trail fee or guest rate to play golf. Trail Fees must be paid in advance or via phone with a credit card. To accommodate residents and make this transition as seamless as possible, the following updates will take effect on April 8th:

A new temporary monthly flat fee of $ 20.00 per month for Trail Fees will be created to accommodate what are now daily cash trail fee golfers. This is in addition to the 6-month and yearly trail fees.Customer Service and Recreation Administration will be taking calls and payment from residents Monday – Friday from 6:45am to 5pm and Saturday & Sunday from 6:45am – 4:00pm.The Starter Shacks will provide a phone number to those residents wishing to purchase the monthly trail fee. In addition, Customer Service will continue to be available via email at CustomerService@districtgov.org and will contact residents via telephone to pay annual trail fees. Tee time hours are being modified to reflect the current available staffing levels of Executive Golf Operations. Hours will be from 7am through 4pm.A golfer will still have the ability to play by walking with a pull cart or carrying their own bag. Only single riders in golf cars will be permitted unless the individuals are cohabitating in the same home.
