Someone else’s post is somehow a reflection on you ? I am not sure I follow that.

Further, I pay for the cart paths, outsiders do not.

A LSV of any kind (like a street legal Golf cart) can legally CROSS at a traffic signal any road but can't drive on it if it is over 35mph as long as the other side of the road where you are crossing to is also a 35mph or less road. A LSV can DRIVE ON any road that is 35mph or less unless SPECIFICALLY PROHIBITED by the jurisdiction.

I can legally cross over 441, 44, 466A, 466 etc.

I never said we didn't pay for them but where does it say "outsiders" are NOT PERMITTED to use them? If it's against our ordinances then I'd agree but somehow I doubt that it is. How they get to the paths is another issue but nothing to do with who pays for them or who "owns" them.

Can't see the problem. The whole Wildwood population already has access to TV!
Anyone can come in with a car, bicycle, skateboard, roller skates, even walk if so inclined.
I would just like to go to Trailwinds in my golf cart.
Nothing would change, except all villagers could access Trailwinds by cart, instead of getting car out each time they wish to shop there.

I must admit that I don't know; who else besides Villagers would have golf carts in this area? They are an expensive toy...

There are areas just outside of The Villages where golf carts are allowed. Fruitland Park is but one example. On the Wildwood side, quite a few people have them.

I live in Alden bungalows and see them drive by in the grass every weekend. My fence borders 44A and I can see clearly they are driving on the grass to get to The Villages golf cart path. Personally I don’t think it’s right. They can drive their cars to the town squares.

There's a saying from Sgt. Schultz " I SEE NOTHING " also " PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN GLASS HOUSES SHOULDN'T THROW STONES" I see our carts going places & doing things all the time. We don't belong at Lowe's on 466a, we don't belong at my Dentist on 441 across from Walmart,we don't belong at Best Buy etc. Not my job & not my concern.

This is not about cars.Golf cart access to the squares and multimodal paths should be for Villagers only. Cars of course can travel the streets of the villages they are public.

So as a lot of you would have it we should just let everyone and anyone use our amenities ( yes multimodals are part of our amenities) even if they haven't contributed to their upkeep. What's next ? Executive golf courses...recreation centers. Come On folks we all pay for these priveledges.

"Should be" is your opinion. You said they are trespassing. They are not.
