Agenda 11/10/2020 Item #17G (Ordinance - Amending Use of Golf Carts in the Village of Goodland)11/10/2020 17.G EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to approve an Ordinance amending Ordinance 2006-57 expanding the use of golf carts to all county roads and streets throughout Goodland, Florida. OBJECTIVE: To amend Ordinance 2006-57 allowing for the use of golf carts on all public roads in Goodland. CONSIDERATIONS: Florida Statute §316.212 prohibits the operation of golf carts on county roads or streets unless the street has been designated by the county for use by golf carts. On November 28, 2006, the Board of County Commissioners (Board) approved Ordinance 2006-57 allowing for the use of golf carts upon designated public roads and streets, including those county roads and streets in Goodland, "located at least 125 feet west of Sunset Drive". Since that time development has increased along Angler Drive in Goodland, and residents along that street have requested to be allowed to use golf carts. Based on this study, it is staff s recommendation to allow the use of golf carts on all public roads in Goodland. On September 22, 2020, the Board heard the Item 16A13 (#13251), accepted the findings of the "Goodland Golf Cart Transportation Analysis" and directed the County Attorney to advertise for a public hearing on an ordinance allowing for the expanded use of golf carts to all County roads and streets throughout Goodland. The item was duly advertised on October 21, 2020. FISCAL IMPACT: The cost to advertise this matter was $546, and the cost to allow expansion of golf cart use is estimated at $500 for sign related tasks. Funding is available within Transportation Fund (101), Traffic Operations Cost Center (163630). GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This action will result in no growth management impact. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, is approved as to form and legality, and requires majority vote for approval. -JAK RECOMMENDATION: To approve an Ordinance amending Ordinance 2006-57 expanding the use of golf carts to all County roads and streets throughout Goodland, Florida.

Based on a recent community request, the Traffic Operations Section of the Collier County Growth Management Department reviewed the addition of Angler Drive to become a portion of the area allowing golf carts on the island of Goodland. This evaluation performed a review of Ordinance No. 2006-57 which determined that golf carts may be operated on all county roads and streets in Goodland that are located to the east of Sunset Drive. Goodland is a community located east of Marco Island in unincorporated Collier County, Florida. The general study area is illustrated in Fig.1.

It is located off of CR 92 (San Marco Rd). Goodland Co.; Drive has 11-foot lanes and a posted speed limit of 30 mph from San Marco Road to just east of Angler Drive E where the speed limit is reduced to 25 mph. The speed limit on the rest of the island is 25 mph. Goodland Drive is appropriately marked for "NO PASSING" by a double yellow centerline. Q A pathway adequate for bicyclists and pedestrians runs parellel with but unattached to,Goodland Drive for most of its length, providing an area out of the roadway for the bike/pedestrian traffic. Packet Pg. 23 571 17.G.2 Recommendations and Conclusions A review of the existing ordinance and the field characteristics of Goodland Dr W near the intersections of Angler Dr and Sunset Dr suggests that the original intent of the golf cart ordinance was to include Angler Dr as part of the limits allowing golf cart use. It is believed that Angler Dr had only the commercial marina business and not the numerous adjacent condo's when the original golf cart study was performed. The extents of the existing golf cart ordinance includes a driveway that may connect to the condos at some point in the future. Currently Angler Dr. is the only paved accessway to Goodland for golf cart owners that live in the condos. It is therefore recommended to extend the golf cart use on Goodland to include Angler Drive. This can be easily accomplished by reloating and changing a few signs. Refer to Appendix I: Sign Considerations Fig. 2 — Aerial of Recommendations L O Q N� .Cn v!
