Actually that statement is only partially true. Village amenities such as pools and recreation facilities are closed to the public. Everything else is accessible. If I care to do so, I can run a Golf Cart just about anywhere I please. Don't care to because there is no reason to.

I contacted a VERY WELL respected official of the CDD through the district gov website. And seeing as i did not think to ask if I could repost her reply nor did she give permission I will paraphrase.

Simply I asked " who owns the multi model paths" The reply was that the cart paths on roadways are owned by the govt entity in which they are located (county roads) and The paths ARE owned by the CDD's (which are government entities). They are maintained through the assessments (taxes) each of the Districts levy on residents annually.

Hope that helps to clear things up

harry Gilbert: Perhaps I am a poor reader but what I interpret from the above-stated comments the cart paths you are talking about are the diamond lanes on roads such as Canal, and not the multi-modal paths on Buena Vista, adjacent to 466, etc I can understand that since Canal, etc belong to a county this would be so. it also is verified in that this is where people speeding in cart get their tickets vis a vis on multi-modal paths,

Am I confused???????????? I mean were talking apples an oranges here.

in paraphrasing I left out "multi modal" sorry. I went back and fixed my earlier post. From the email I received it was definitely 2 separate forms of paths, the roadways and the mm paths
