Golf Cart access to cross rolling acres to shop
 
Does anyone know if they are going to do access to cross over rolling acres to shop by golf cart at Kohl's, the new mace's etc. Some people have only golf carts and that would help a great deal???? :smiley:

Sometimes you need to drive a car here. This is a golf cart friendly place but not a golf cart dependent place. It is engineered as an active adult living area.


We can't have everything everyone wants. This place is run better than the place we all left behind.

Even as golf cart dependent as I am I agree. Some places you have to get in your car. Yesterday I found where I can park the cart and spend 2 minutes walking to my doctor's office. I figured the walk would do me good.:smiley:

Because TV doesn't own that shopping center, I don't think it will ever happen.

OP, get yourself a Street Legal Golf Cart if you want to go across Rolling Acres Rd.

However, be aware a Street Legal Golf Cart will cost you a bit more and Insurance is also higher. Some think it's worth it!

I agree, the Villages don't own this Plaza, they have no skin in the game. If they can't make money off the rent of the owners they don't get to excited about putting access to the area. A proven fact was the deal with the gate on the East side of 441 the Villages by OB Hills's. If they own the property its a completely different game.

That all was settled nicely and to The Villages benefit. We don't have several thousand golf carts using our paths from outside areas. Do you live outside, sir?

Everybody take a breath and chill. The Villages is run and very well run buy and independent company/family. They make money from renting to commercial businesses within The Villages. They must protect their commercial customers. One of the distinct advantages of renting from TV is golf cart access ability.

In the future,if they ever build out, that will be the owners only source of income from TV. Think about it, if it were your investment wouldn't you protect your only source of income. I really can't imagine TV allowing all the surrounding commercial businesses access to TV cart trails. And it's not about overcrowderd cart trails it's business.

Don't assume. OP is obviously talking about an outlet store for Slovakian snack foods.
