Are Golf Carts or LSVs Allowed on Sidewalks in Port St. Lucie?

The City’s 2025 workshop materials repeatedly point to sidewalk use as a concern. Port St. Lucie’s status quo slide states “No sidewalk use for LSVs or golf carts,” and the agenda summary specifically mentions safety concerns from illegal sidewalk golf cart use.

Do not assume that a golf cart can be driven on Port St. Lucie roads or sidewalks just because it is used in a private community or nearby city.
