"Golf carts only" would make an awesome visual....and, accentuates the fact that we are a golf cart community. That's my vote!

I don't think we are a golf cart community. Any time a golf cart and a car are vying for the same road, the car has the right-of-way.

1. You still can have designated golf cart handicap parking.
2. Perhaps just the parking around the square adjacent to the square. Parking across the street be left for both cars and carts.
3. Allow vendors on market night 1 spot for a vehicle and open up the others to golf carts.

Of course we all know that 100% of those " Handicap Parking " tags are 100 % Legit . Anyone who has an MD in their family can easily get one .

Rarely see a person who appears to be in the least handicapped emerging from their vehicles as they whip into their special parking spots .

While some people obviously abuse the handicap parking tag/sticker system, there are a LOT of legitimate handicaps...that ARE NOT VISIBLE to others.

My wife would/should have utilized one during a tough physical issue occasion, but eschewed doing so...just to avoid such judgemental observations.

She also suffered...due to it.

How about getting rid of the smokers.

Sure makes me wonder.

I don't recall ever seeing so many posters, who have been members for years according to the info in the upper right...but haven't hardly posted anything until now.


I wonder what it is about this thread...that brought them out?

We are a community that has a lot of golf carts. We are not a golf cart community. We have a lot of golf carts where people use golf carts to do and go places other than the golf course. That does not make us a golf cart community.
We have even more automobiles than golf carts. Does that make us an automobile community?
More people use automobiles to do things and go places than golf carts. Does that make us an automobile community?

Just funnin' above. However it should challenge the logic being used.

I too am curious how this thread is inundated with new, many first time posters. How does that happen?

I noticed that too. Are there more 2 golf carts, 1 car residents or the opposite, not that it matters?

I'd have no problem with this. I'd also like to see market nights eliminated or if they insist on having them, don't shut off the parking spaces for the vendors. Let the vendors come in early and temporarily shut down the spaces, then open them up again once they are set up. They could also set up on the opposite side of the sidewalk if they think that having golf carts parked behind them is a problem.

Market nights attract the biggest crowds and they create the fewest parking spots. Too many people have to walk from the back lots to the square. By making the squares golf cart only and not closing down the spots for market night, a lot fewer people would be inconvenienced.

I strongly believe that there are to many golf carts and to many speeders, and drunk drivers. Have your beer after your Golf game if necessary. I realize parking would be a problem however plenty of additional parking can be found.
After almost being killed as a passenger in a golf cart on the trail during the day just imagine residents driving all day after a few drinks. Let them take their cars and watch how quickly many will get DUIs. Try it for a while and see what materializes.

[QUOTE=rustyp;1531430]The thought of golf carts only in n nights, etc.)

Any constructive opinions ? Do you think the yearly resident


Hi, while looking at carts, how abut an ID number on a cart so the crazy and wild Happy Hours bandits can be reported???
Also. how about some monitoring on the golf paths, the MMP paths due to the speeding and the crazy antics that go on?

Just leave it as it is. Police and city know what they are doing, and if there are problems in the area, they will address it.

Yes and my comment was not a sweeping condemnation . It was sarcasm directed at the many who are clearly abusing the situation .
Why so ultra sensitive constantly ?
