Recharging stations in the squares
 
Is there a place to get a quick charge in any of the squares?

Nope

Not at present time. Can you imagine how much this would be abused by people not removing cart promptly after charging so someone else could use it.

The only place I know of is Outback in Spanish Springs, they have a sigh out front.

Chair saving is nothing compared to the fuel fistfights that would ensue.

I stopped at the villages golf cart store once and they charged it for me. They were really nice about it.

Don't tell anyone I told you. Check out the Assisted Living Parking Lots. Many of them have charging stations. I'm sure it can be our secret here on TOTV, LOL!

I don't see why a number of credit card operated machines can't be placed in strategic places around the squares.

It they were made expensive enough so that people only used them in an emergency I don't think that people would be plugging in and leaving their carts there.

They could be set up in such a way that as long as your cart is plugged, you'd be getting charged by the minute. That way people wouldn't be leaving their carts plugged in any longer than necessary.

I agree but the hackers would be at our door steps.

Why would you need a quick charge? Old Cart? Don't have an outlet in the garage? Prius?
