This is a colossally bad idea. The trails we have now are barely wide enough to accommodate mixed bicycle and foot traffic. Throwing golf carts into the mix is only going to make things worse. Sure you can solve that by widening trails and/or adding cart only trails, but where is the money going to come from for that?
In case you haven’t noticed, the state is poised to cut property taxes and the GOP “plans” put forth so far don’t offer any way for local governments to replace the lost revenue. Sure you could use TIF’s to prop up this pet project, but are you willing to literally defund the police, fire, roads, and schools to pay for it?
Is this really the most pressing issue for Westfield? When you were on the campaign trail last year, was this the #1 thing you were hearing from your constituents (outside of Bridgewater)? I’m pretty sure it wasn’t this. Or were you just not listening to the people outside your affluent bubble?
Matthew is obviously not a golf cart owner and not in favor of expanding opportunities in Westfield. Please know that we support this initiative 100%. It will be a great addition and unique benefit for those who live in Westfield.
Thank you mayor for your desire to see this service expanded in our community.
This will definitely be an added benefit to Westfield! We support it 100%!
That’s an awesome prospect of infrastructure.
The positives far outweigh any negatives which are negligible from my perspective. We do need some north and south corridor for golf carts if the Monon is off limits. The Parks system could benefit from all of this connectivity. Plus the surrounding areas to Grand Park….the Chatham neighborhoods are already there.
I agree with MM..

Will be fine if they will crack down on underage golf cart drivers. They always seem to drive with petal to the metal and probably represent the biggest risk to trail walkers and runners.
What ever gets cars off the roads is plus. Central Indiana already has enough traffic. This only spurs alternative transportation which is a win win. Golf carts take up less space.
After contemplating on this topic for many days I have decided to comment. First, I do own a golf cart. Secondly, no one without a driver’s license has operated our cart. Thirdly I live downtown non in one of the affluent neighborhoods. WESTFILED SHOULD BE THE PREMIER GOLF CART COMMUNITY IN INDIANA!!! Go Scott Willis!!!!
