LAKELAND NEIGHBORS FOR GOLF CARTS;CITY ORDINANCE CHANGE

As a resident of the Lakeland community and a golf cart owner I would like to be able to use my GC to drive around the community for various reasons like: check the mail, pick up trash left by contractors blowing through community, residents on carts we will by default be patrolling our community, Manvel Christmas parade, trick or treating w your kids, just cruising to wave at your neighbors, less fuel emissions used locally. There are countless reasons to own a GC and I would like to have the city ordinance changed in order for us to use our slow moving vehicles without the concern of breaking the law and getting tickets from Manvel Police or the Texas Highway patrol as we stroll through our community peacefully. If we can get a vote passed by majority then we can get some guidelines put in place that would allow us as law abiding Manvel residents to use our golf carts.  Examples of guidelines are: headlights and taillights, slow moving vehicle sign, only allowed on streets w speed limits below 35mph,register/inspect GC w city, must have valid drivers license. These are just a few examples the city could place on golf carts to be legally owned and operated on the streets of Manvel or just in the Lakeland Community.  League city and Galveston are also two nearby cities who have legalized GC/UTVs that we could look to for guidance or advice on the matter should we pass the ordinance Change.
