Ever Wanted To Go Faster On Your Golf Cart?

facebook-image-golf-cart-speed-increasePeachtree City April Fools Day Joke! After months of debate and council Peachtree City has made an official change in the speed limit for golf carts in Peachtree City. Based on popular demand and the input from many around the city the 20 mph golf cart speed limit has been lifted and replaced with a 30 mph golf cart speed limit.

There were many factors that influenced this change. Some of the main factors are as follows.

1. The world is suffering from global warming (as was evident this winter in Peachtree City) and golf carts are our way to stop it. Because golf carts go so slow its discouraging many from using their golf carts and instead they are driving. By increasing the golf cart speed limit Peachtree City hopes to encourage more people to drive their golf carts. With this increased speed limit golf carts can travel on the golf cart paths from the Northern parts of Peachtree City to the most Southern parts in almost half the time.

2. Too many people are late to work because their golf carts can’t drive fast enough. As a result the overall productivity at the workplace has seen a dramatic decline in Peachtree City. Now that golf carts can go faster we won’t have this problem.

3. Many of the businesses that sell golf carts have seen a decline in profit. So as a way to help them the city has increased the speed limit. With the increased speed limit many golf cart owners will take their golf carts in to have them suped up to be able to meet the new 30 mph speed limit. This will mean more revenue for the golf cart businesses and more taxes for the government.

4. Last but not least driving a golf cart around Peachtree City is one of the main forms of entertainment for residents and we don’t want people to get bored of it. Now that the speed limit is 30 mph the city feels that driving a golf cart in Peachtree City will continue to be what entertains Peachtree City residents for years to come.

Lake Peachtree Will Not Be Filled Up This Summer

Everyone has been asking why Lake Peachtree is so low. Peachtree City's official reason at first was that the city and residents needed to make repairs on docks and sea walls. Just yesterday Peachtree City retracted that reason and announced the real reason they have lowered the lake.

Peachtree City wants to attract younger people to move in and or visit Peachtree City and have elected to turn the lake into a professional motocross, monster truck, and drifting course. They have officially apologized to all the home owners surrounding the used to be Lake Peachtree. They are fully aware that this will dramatically decrease their home values but Peachtree City is onboard with spreading the wealth and leveling the playing field for the rich and not so rich.

Word leaked last week and one of the locals jumped the gun.

We have all been hearing a lot about Pinewood Studios and have all speculated as to what this will mean for Peachtree City.

Because Avatar 2 has a lot of water scenes the studios has chosen Lake McIntosh, Lake Kedron, and Lake Peachtree (which will be the location of some of the large motor/war scenes on dry ground) for Avatar 2.

The movie is scheduled to start filming sometime this year or next year.
