Default Courtyard villa gates & golf carts

For those of you with Courtyard Villas... can a golf cart fit through the gate so that it can go into your yard?

Not sure why it matters, since you can always just press the red button to open the gate.

I think they meant the gate into their yard, not a gate into a neighborhood

Default A tight squeeze

The opening in the gate to my courtyard villa (built 2018) is 46 inches. With mirrors brought in, my 2-seat Yamaha golf cart is 44-45 inches wide, depending on where you measure (widest up top). No, I haven't actually tried to see if it can actually get through.

If you took the door off the hinges it may fit. They’re different sizes in different areas so you would need to know the exact location.

I hope that question is purely academic.

Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions
Article IX — Parking Restrictions

“No Owner of a Homesite shall park, store or keep any vehicle except wholly within his driveway, garage or other non-visitor parking spaces …”

This place has an astonishing number of rules—and, at the same time, an astonishing number of people who don’t care to understand them, much less abide by them.
