Gulf Shores will talk about making it legal to drive golf carts on streets in The Retreat at Bon Secour neighborhood at a city council work session on Nov. 20 at 4 p.m. at city hall.
“Cart operations are limited to streets that have a speed limit of 25 miles per hour or less, have been specifically designated as streets where cart operation is allowed, and to the hours between sunrise to 10 p.m. only,” a memo on the agenda states. “Carts must have numerous items of safety equipment, including seat belts and each will be inspected by police personnel prior to authorized operation. Cart-designated streets will be marked with appropriate signage by the Street Department.”
