(A) A golf cart must be inspected on in annual basis by the Town Police Department once each calendar year. The inspection shall be $30 per golf cart inspection. The permit issued as a result of the inspection shall be valid from January 1 to December 31 of the year in which the inspection occurred. The cost of the inspection shall remain the same regardless as to when the inspection occurred within the calendar year. The individual requesting the inspection must set an appointment with the Town Police Department in order to have the golf cart inspected.
(B) The purpose of the annual inspection shall be to determine whether a golf cart is in compliance with the terms and provisions of this subchapter. Said inspection shall include a review of the financial responsibility associated with the golf cart. The Town Police Department shall maintain a record of the inspection. Upon completion of an adequate inspection, a golf cart shall be registered by the Town Police Department and shall be issued a permit for operation from the date of inspection through the end of the calendar year in which the gold cart was inspected. The owner of a golf cart must sign for the permit as an acceptance of the rules and regulations of said ordinance. Said permit shall be posted in plain view on the rear of the golf cart at all times. The golf cart must be inspected, pass inspection and have a new permit affixed to the golf cart each calendar year before the golf cart shall be permitted to be operating under the terms and conditions of this subchapter.
(C) The town and its employees assume no liability by registering golf carts. Owners and operators, by registering a golf cart, agree to indemnify and hold the town, as well as the town’s employees, harmless against injuries, damage or liability that may result from the use or the operation of a golf cart.
