We have played the Putt & play couple of times, since it opened. My take on the facility is just to take up some time and have a little fun. Have never had to wait long to play.
I don’t think it was ever designed to help with your golf game.
It’s not going to improve putting, but it’s a place that I can take a parental unit, or grands to take up some time on a boring afternoon

Wow! A half a mile walk. OMG how will you survive. I couldn't care less if I ever saw the Putt and Play. There are sooo many activities to do here in TV why pick on one small problem. Leave the people who live in Fenny alone. I would not like my street looking like the city if I lived there. That's why I moved to TV.

Do any of them?

The Happy Paper is so slanted, I've learned to tie off for 'fall protection'...before I read it.

A no parking sign in your front yard is worse than a simple white cross mixed in your shrubbery .. Let's move all the tattle tales down there !!

I beg to differ. Driving miles to play is not a big deal to most of the residents. Also, it seems to me that the majority of residents have golf carts as part of the life style of living here. Cart sales are changing from electric to gas in response to longer drive times as Villagers take the opportunity to explore the new areas that are being built.

The solution to this is pretty simple. Landfill some of that pond next to where the golf carts park. You then make a small parking lot for 12 cars. This could easily be done.

I know in days gone by the EPA would never let that happen. Once just a little water has a fish, toad, or a few mosquitos, or nesting birds, it becomes protected. Even on private land. Maybe things have changed, I don't know.

I'm trying to figure out how anyone could enforce 'no parking zones'... in residential locations that otherwise allows street parking?

How do you differentiate between those visiting homeowners (or the homeowners themselves) and those going to the P&P, unless you have someone there full time watching the occupants getting out of each vehicle...and personally observe where they go?

How much will THAT cost...and who pays for it?

And what about yard and/or other service companies...particularly if they don't have logo's on their vehicles?

Will they be excluded, from what appears on the surface as...'selective enforcement?'

Could any (all?) other neighborhoods/villages request that their streets...be made no parking zones also?

I just see a whole lot of issues, and ultimately the legality...entering into the equation.

Time to call the...POA to the rescue.

Simple solution: Residential Parking Permit
