    More golf cart pullover lanes on 30A approved

    Glidewell’s comment about golf carts on 30A being up to the state is misleading. Yes, the state law says LSVs are legal on any road with speed limit under 35. However, the county controls the speed limit. Several years ago, they lowered speed limits, specifically, to allow LSVs! The speed...

    When the left hand is waving around, look at what the right hand is doing! This may just be a Gaetz distraction to divert your attention from his ex girlfriend testifying in a federal court hearing in his investigation!

    Private/public beach

    I’ve seen legal easement documents that define it the way I described.

    Private/public beach

    Not necessarily true. The term “deeded beach access” is used very loosely! In some instances it means that a neighborhood has an easement of a path to the beach, but only to get to the high tide line....then you’re on your own with no public beach available unless you walk down the wet sand to...

    Another Big Reason to Hate Golf Carts in SoWal

    Best way to “outlaw” them is to raise the speed limit. They are only “legal” on roads with speed limits below 35mph.

    Developer marketing observations

    sanctuary by the sea

    The person referring to beach access and shuttle service must be thinking about Sanctuary at Redfish which has no beach access. Sanctuary by the Sea owns 650 feet of beautiful beach....depending on your location within the complex you are just a few yards from the beach, or if you're back in...

    Cost for Shuttle or Taxi from New Airport To Inlet Beach

    Another thought for those of us who might be traveling frequently....how about a long-term auto storage facility near the airport. We could store a car there and pick it up when we fly in?

    Cost for Shuttle or Taxi from New Airport To Inlet Beach

    I agree....the price is prohibitive. Since the flights into the airport are only a few times a day you'd think a shuttle van or bus could transport several customers and simply have drop points along 30a. By splitting the cost over a dozen or so people the cost could come down considerably...
