Edgewood council adopts ordinance lowering annual golf-cart renewal fee
Summary
The Edgewood Town Council approved Ordinance No. 072000 on third reading, keeping the initial registration fee at $100 and cutting subsequent annual renewal fees to $50 per cart. The change takes effect after adoption and was approved by voice vote.
The Edgewood Town Council approved Ordinance No. 072000 on July 20, 2026, keeping the initial golf- or motorized-cart registration and inspection fee at $100 and reducing the renewal fee to $50 per year.
The ordinance was moved, seconded and read by title for its second and third readings before the council voted in favor. Chair read the ordinance language and declared, “The ayes have it. The ordinance updating the annual fee for golf carts, motorized carts for the town of Edgewood has been approved.”
Council members discussed the ordinance as a technical update to the town’s existing golf-cart regulation, which the text says was initially adopted in October 2023. The ordinance retains the $100 initial-year fee and adds a lower $50 renewal rate for subsequent years.
The vote occurred by voice and the chair announced the ordinance’s adoption; no roll-call tally of individual yes/no votes was recorded in the meeting transcript. Councilmember McCord moved the ordinance and Councilmember Pickett seconded the motion.
The ordinance text states it will remain in force and effect with other parts of the town’s golf-cart regulations unchanged. The council did not attach additional amendments to fee structure or prorating rules beyond the language in the adopted ordinance.
The ordinance was approved in the July meeting and will be implemented through the town’s registration process; the clerk treasurer will handle administrative steps for collections and notices.
