ORDINANCE NO. 3355

 

AMENDING CHAPTER 36 OF THE

CODE OF ORDINANCES ALLOWING LIMITED GOLF CART TRAVEL

NEAR REDLANDS MESA GOLF COURSE

 

 

RECITALS: In 1990, City Council passed Ordinance 2474 which permitted golf carts to be driven on public right of way to and from golf courses. The owners of a new golf course, Redlands Mesa, has also requested that golf carts be authorized on the streets in the area. The Council finds that the public interest will be served by allowing golf carts to use the streets near Redlands Mesa Golf Course.

 

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND JUNCTION THAT:

 

Chapter 36-2 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Grand Junction, (the 1995 Model Traffic Code) be amended as follows:

 

Subsection 238 (b) be amended to read:

 

A golf cart may be driven upon streets under the jurisdiction of the city, excluding country roads, state or federal highways, in two areas: (a) the area bounded on the west by 26 Road, on the east by 28 Road, on the south by Patterson Road, and on the north by H Road. Golf carts may be driven on 26 Road, 28 Road, and H Road, but are not permitted on Patterson Road or Horizon Drive (however, crossing Horizon Drive at an intersection is permitted); and (b)beginning at the intersection of Shadow Lake Road and Mariposa Road (but excluding Mariposa Road) along Ridges Boulevard to the west, continuing along West Ridges Boulevard and inclusive of all streets within the Redlands Mesa Planned Development.

 

Introduced this 20th day of June 2001.

 

Passed and adopted this 11th day of July 2001.
