Smith and Michael Cash, Michael Cash, CFM, Public Works Engineer SUBMITTED BY: Norton N. Bonaparte, Jr., ICMA-CM, City Manager SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 4633; Golf Carts; Amending City Code STRATEGIC PRIORITIES: ❑ Unify Downtown & the Waterfront ❑ Promote the City's Distinct Culture ❑ Update Regulatory Framework ❑ Redevelop and Revitalize Disadvantaged Communities SYNOPSIS: Adoption of Ordinance No. 4633, amending the City Code relative to the use of golf carts within the City is proposed. FISCAL/STAFFING STATEMENT: There are no substantial fiscal or staffing issues impacted by the approval of the proposed ordinance. BACKGROUND: Ordinance No. 4285, as amended by Ordinance No. 4489, is codified in Article IV, Chapter 94 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Sanford (City Code) and the provisions thereof relate to the lawful operation of golf carts within the City with regard to specified areas of the City, subject to certain provisions and conditions. The provisions of the City Code and the map providing for areas within which golf cart usage is permitted have proven to be inadequate under a contemporary analysis of the legislatively enacted provisions. The revised map indicating areas and roadways for the lawful use of golf carts within the City and implements the direction given to City staff by the City Commission to address land locked areas and areas located east of Mellonville Avenue. Ordinance No. 4633 provides for areas in which golf cart usage is permitted, and the roadways on which golf cart usage is allowed to be depicted in a map (which is an attachment to this memorandum) which map may be modified by adoption of a resolution by the City Commission. The provisions of Ordinance No. 4633 also simplify and clarify which intersections golf carts may lawfully use within the City Limits of the City. Further, Ordinance No. 4633 clarifies that the owner of a golf cart is responsible and liable for payment of any fine unless the owner furnishes clear and convincing evidence that the golf cart was, at the time of the violation, in the care, custody or control of another person. In such instances, the owner of the golf cart is required to, within a reasonable period of time, furnish the City with an affidavit setting forth the name, address and driver's license number of the person who leased, rented or otherwise had the care, custody or control of the golf cart. The affidavit submitted shall be admissible in a proceeding charging a violation and raises the rebuttable presumption that the person identified in the affidavit is responsible for payment of the fine. The owner of the golf cart is not responsible for a violation if the golf cart involved was, at the time of the violation, stolen, but in all other cases a rebuttable presumption shall exist that the owner is the violator and owes the fine to the City. The Public Works Department certifies that all required studies have occurred as to the areas within, and roadways upon, that golf carts may safely be used within the City Limits of the City. LF -GAL RF-viF-w: The City Attorney who has assisted in the development of the subject proposed Ordinance No. 4633 and this agenda memorandum.
