Peachtree City announced it will leave the Crabapple Lane Gate open to golf carts indefinitely after a review of usage counts, Speaker 1 said at a city council meeting.

Speaker 1 said city staff asked for public input and examined counts at three locations — including Crabapple, a Maple Shade location and a south-side site — and concluded "of the 3 locations, Crabapple Gate receives the least amount of golf cart traffic." The speaker added, "We have no known incidents, accidents, or incursions." The city therefore decided "to leave the Crabapple Lane Gate open to golf carts indefinitely."

The announcement framed the decision as a response to resident input and usage data; no formal motion or roll-call vote is recorded in the transcript. The city did not provide specific count totals or a timetable for future reviews in the meeting remarks.

The decision affects access patterns for golf-cart traffic on the north side of the Kedron Hills subdivision, which Speaker 1 named during the discussion. The city said it evaluated three entry points but gave no additional details about the methodology, the exact dates of the counts, or whether enforcement or safety monitoring will change going forward.

The city did not indicate any immediate operational changes beyond leaving the gate open. The announcement was presented as the outcome of staff review and resident feedback and concluded without a recorded vote or stated next procedural steps.
