Parking Patrol members (and their fans) need to MYOB
I am writing in response to Joanne Newton’s letter in support of the Parking Patrol. Hey, Joanne, your mother should have named you “Karen.” In other words, MYOB. Some of us have mobility problems. Parking near a front door at a store or a rec center for a few minutes can make a big difference. If I do it (and I don’t do it often), my wife is in the golf cart to explain the situation, or I can see my golf cart and can react if it’s a real problem. In fact, most people I encounter are understanding and helpful. But not you, Karen. I think it’s time for The Villages to put a stop to the Parking Patrol.

As a resident of The Villages, I am constantly amazed by how central golf carts are to our daily lives. With a median age of around 73, our community is vibrant and uniquely reliant on our multi-modal paths. However, our shared love for convenience is running into a dangerous reality: the 20 mph speed limit is routinely ignored.

SW 66th Street bridge demolition continues on Sept. 21. I-75 affected.
The Florida Department of Transportation says northbound traffic along a portion of Interstate 75 will be temporarily interrupted due to the Southwest 66th Street bridge demolition. Officials said the work will take place Sept. 21-24 between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. If the work is not completed, crews will return on Sept. 27. Traffic will be reduced from three lanes to one approaching the bridge. FDOT asks motorists to cut their speed to 60 mph. Concrete dividers will guide drivers through the work zone.
