Only commercial space that is golf cart accessible is Developer Owned properties, I don’t know, but I would bet you pay a large premium, businesses with tight margins won’t be successful, unless you charge more.

There is plenty of private land south of 44 that would be suitable for a Home Depot, no need for it to be golf cart accessible, the new Lowes on 466A is not and they are doing very well. There was a 20 acre parcel for sale on 501 that abuts TV right across from the Monarch Grove entrance, it has great frontage, perfectly flat, deep, and wide, the price on the sign was $6,000,000.00 and the sign is no long there another 20 acres wooded right beside it also for sale, 40 acres will handle some large stores.

Does anyone have any ideas I can pass by him that would be good here? Something besides the obvious Golf Carts, Golf Clubs. There must be something out there that is missing here that even Amazon can't fill. Think outside the box. Thanks

Residents in Spanish Springs would like a new Katie Bells

Can't have too many pizza places. I looked Ledo Pizza up, and it looks like a place we would frequent.
