SPEEDS ARE DOWN

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our residents for reducing their speed within the community. We have realized a 20% reduction in speeds under 40 mph and a 45% reduction in speeds 40mph and over. This is due to all of you making a concerted effort to be aware of your speed and reduce it to create a safe community for all of us to live and work. We can still improve on these numbers. I would encourage all of you to remind your family members, friends, guests and vendors that our traffic rules are photo enforced. The Traffic Hawk is being deployed on a daily basis throughout the community, day and night. I look forward to a continued reduction in our ongoing effort to make our community as safe as possible.

I have received numerous complaints about unsafe golf cart operation at the Verdun and Verde cuts. The complaints consist of excessive speed, travelling in the wrong lane and not stopping at the STOP signs. I am confident, with a little effort we can greatly reduce these issues and be respectful of our fellow cart drivers, pedestrians and cyclists. The alternative to self-correction is to install traffic calming measures. These mea s u r e s c ou l d i nc l ude l ane delineators, a median/curb installed in the center of the cart path or enforcement measures. None of this will be necessary with a little effort and consideration on all of our parts. Thank you for your time and attention to this very important safety issue. GOLF CART SAFETY
