AmbergrisCaye.com Home Forums Talk Belize Chat Area city permit for golf carts

indygal, no did not say I would not own the car.. I said would not own any property (land or house) Rent while looking to buy.

If, as your profile indicates, you are a resort operator in Honduras, then you know what I mean by "theres always a way to work things out"

Yes, I understand as its the same here. A green item that always gets what you want... understood.

Bluenote here...

roger that. thanks for your help

I think this guy has an attitude....maybe you should stay in Honduras.

There is a point system that is supposed to help with the golf cart permit process; Belizeans have priority, residents earn points, you have to have an off street place to park, etc.
However, there are political issues (I'm editing this part)
At one time there were 60 people on the list waiting for approval - those of us who would not deal in the above. It took me one year to get my permit.
Here, almost a year later they got another laugh on me - I merrily stopped at the check point because I knew I was legal - NOT! They kept asking me for my ACPC sticker. My what? Seems that they just forgot to tell me, when I paid for everything else, and got my license plates - that I needed to go upstairs and pay another $25 for an ACPC sticker. Altogether they got me for another $165.
It is imperative that you NOT bring a cart onto the island BEFORE you have your permit; it can be confiscated.

"If i live there for a long time and have not become a resident I have to through away my money to get around the town. Thats very stupid and anti friendly to tourism."

If you live here, what has tourism have to do with it? How many tourists 'visit' here and want to buy their own cart? I can't believe you're serious. The problem here affecting tourism is not letting every visitor ride around in anything they want, but the fact that there are already too many vehicles and many of them belong to people who really don't even need them. Finding 'legal' parking on front street is already almost impossible and San Pedro already has a small version of rush hour traffic. These are the real problems and what MOST Tourists find to be the real 'stupid'.
