Does the amenity fee specifically include paying for MMP maintenance? I guess it's possible, but I haven't seen anything definitive on that.

How will it work with Middleton where there is no amenity fee?

Don't know if it comes out of the amenity fee or the maintenance fee, but it is paid exclusively by Villagers, not the counties.

This trumps a Villages-posted sign that states “no golf carts beyond this point” on Pinellas Pl approaching 466A. Thanks.

Annual Maint Fee.

The CDD owns approx 1,000 acres of land, including paths, and they maintain the land.

And if caught, you will pay a fine and it will be turned into your insurance company. Don’t believe what others tell you, you need to call or stop at Sumter County Police Station and/ or Wildwood Police Station. The fine could be quite expensive. Check it out.

I don’t think Officer Layne told DEWILSON his opinion, I would guess; that the WPD actually talk about this topic - and have an answer and a protocol.

Its the same place.

Nope.

Did something legally change after The Villages put out those signs?

Saw I Yamaha Golf Cart cross 466A this morning, I was wonderingly what was up

Probably a TOTV reader………:22yikes:

Looks like golfing eagles and dewilson are quoting two different parts of the Florida General Statutes.

Dewilson is quoting something that doesn't apply to Villagers at all. It is exclusively for municipal and state employees using golf carts and utility vehicles as part of their job.

Golfing eagles is quoting the part that does apply to Villagers - we cannot cross roads that have a speed limit of 45 or more, unless an exception has been made in a specific location. There would need to be a discussion - paperwork, forms, officials making official decisions to make those exceptions. It's not just a "hey Officer Jimbob, is it okay if this neighborhood crosses the road here?" "Sure Gary and Jennifer, you're good to go."

I'd love to see the official ruling on the location in question. Not something that an individual police officer said. But something in writing. So far I'm not seeing it in the General Statutes of the state.

Here’s what’s beautiful.

If, after reading the 163 posts on the topic…..
you don’t feel comfortable crossing 466A in your golf car, don’t
If you do feel comfortable, have at it.

The Village signs have no legal authority. They are just advice. There are no Village police and county / city Police don't have authority to enforce Villages road signs.
