Whether one felt they had a legitimate reason to park on the grass or not, that is besides the point. It was forbidden to do so - so those parking there were giving the middle finger and doing it anyway - we need to a people who respect and obey laws/ordinances, etc. If there is something we disagree with, there are ways to voice your concerns rather than flagrantly being disobedient.

Good. No one is "special."

That may have been one of the subjects discussed at that meeting. I really believe those that operate their golf cart recklessly speeding and passing on blind curves know if they ever cause an accident they won't be identified unless their cart was disabled by the accident. They'll go about their day.

I drove there tonight - it was Boozy Bingo at Sawgrass, and the place was packed, still I saw plenty of parking spaces, and only half of the golf cart spaces were occupied on the southside of the complex.

They may park on the next section of grass unfortunately. St. Paddy's Day even cars drove and parked across the street on the grass.

Last time that I went to Sawgrass was in late January on a Thursday night with a band that definitely wasn't one of the bigger names. There was a ton of golf carts parked on the "illegal" grass area and there was still zero spots available in the whole parking lot all the way to the front of the Ezell Rec Center. There's just a complete lack of available parking there, and for the handicapped it appears like a tenfold problem. It would be like if Brownwood had 5 handicapped spots in the Square.

I'm not sure what problem that people parking on the grass was creating. It was actually more like a grassroots solution to a problem that the developer never thought about. Seems curious what the benefit is to anyone now that the parking will be even worse there.

No. Lazy. They can add HC spots. But parking there was an eyesore and a safety issue.

Oh no, you might have to walk a few hundred feet.

Another solution would have been to turn the 'grassy spots' into real parking, which would have helped to alleviate the parking problem.

All the ones I’ve seen are just lazy.

The people that parked there were just lazy, period! The people that parked there are probably the 1’s that need to do a little walking. Even if you had to park near the pickleball courts, maybe you are talking a 300 feet away from the stage.
How would these same people feel if 50 golf carts would park on their front lawn every night? Since I live nearby, I don’t want to see the grass destroyed from carts parking on the grass

You may want to spend sometime in the VA clinic parking lot to witness the number of disabled Veterans who are able to drive themselves to their appointments either by golf cart or car as their disability does not impair their ability to drive but it does impair their ability to ambulate. Some of these Vets can't even ambulate without the assistance of a cane or walker, and others require wheelchairs and scooters. And unfortunately there are many who are mobility impaired who do not or no longer have a spouse, other family member or a friend who can drive them where they need to go and have no choice but to be as best as they can self reliant. I am sure that some that park on that strip of grass could very easily park in the parking lot and walk to the interior of Sawgrass from there. But don't assume this is the case with everyone who parks on the strip of grass who often remain in their carts to listen to the bands from there because getting inside with the assistance of a cane or walker along with lugging a chair as there is minimal seating inside Sawgrass is difficult if not impossible for them.

I agree with the poster who mentioned that strip of grass should have been instead a paved bank of handicapped golf cart parking spaces.

Funny thing - I never saw any signs that said "No Parking On Grass" - Is this a Golden Rule in TV?
Certainly a safety concern, though. Park and Walk, folks. From what I see every day, many/most living here could use a brisk walk every day or so.

Common sense?

The some of the entitled old people got their nose broken on this one.
