Not True. There already is a path called the “Power Line Path” that goes along the power lines from Belle Meade to Mulberry. Mulberry Dog Park is on that path. Very nice path.
The Villages tried to improve the "Power Line Path" by widening and adding ribbons to the sides. Duke Energy said no, and the effort was drop. Duke does want anything but land under their power lines. Somehow, the Mulberry lane was installed in the past as a pedestrian only lane but was used by golf carts during reconstruction of the narrow pathways back in 2010 and was never returned to the pedestrian status.

Taxpayers, Ideally. They don't care and they are VERY generous.

I suspect it will not be used any more then the bridges over the turnpikes... which is not much. Not going to happen in our lifetimes. it is an interesting idea. Fun to read the comments.

The Water Lilly Bridge over the Turnpike gets used a lot. The Bexley Bridge not as much, but that area is still a construction zone West of the Turnpike.

The property under those towers is an easement for use by the power companies. High voltage lines atop a lengthy golf cart path are not going to be approved.
