Questions that I can’t find any data, only guesses are as follows:

How many and what type of carts are in use in the Villages?

The percentage of carts being used at night and the age of those users.

A traffic count of cart use on the multi-modal trails to highlight areas of high use.

So, I need more data before my decision is made on side striping!

This seems very logical to me. Why not gather all types of data on any subject? In another thread I asked what everyone thought was the average amount of money spent on food and drinks not prepared at home. A few people answered but not enough to draw any conclusions. My guess was $150/wk. It's a harmless question.

There was a discussion on the number of people who roll through stop signs. Just about everyone said that they didn't. So I went to an intersection with McLin and Hendry and counted 100 cars and carts. 93 rolled through the stop sign when no cars were coming in either direction. I don't think it took a half hour. But the next time I hear that the majority of the people on TOTV don't roll through stops signs, breaking the law, I'll know better

I pull out of my driveway, I live on the corner, and stop my car at the stop sign. That is the reason for the stop sign. I am a first born and a guilt ridden Catholic.

That's a great survey question.
What's been missing in your life?
an indoor herb garden
Boy, I'm I glad I got that off my chest.

You could write that in the next Villages Survey -- I'm sure the Developer would like to know all our individual heart's desires.
I'd like one of the Executive Golf Courses to become a dog park.
Before I get raged at, I'm just Kidding.

I wasn't thinking as grandly. I just want to buy a couple of clay pots I move from the lanai to the kitchen for some basil and tarragon. [forgive me--i didn't see the fine print--and hope it sound ragey like]

Since 1992, more than 1.9 million Young Eagles have enjoyed a flight from EAA�s network of volunteer pilots. For many, it was the start of their journey to becoming a pilot, aircraft mechanic, air traffic controller, or many other career possibilities."



In other words, we pilots give kids rides for free because of our love of aviation. Please visit the YE site for more information -> EAA Young Eagles Program | EAA

Thank you very much for the answers.
